Enroll now in EIT Climate-KIC "Future of transport, how do we deal with it?" course and learn how to address innovation from a public authority perspective
In the transport field, we always hear of new ideas that are going to revolutionise the transport system: from hyperloops and self-driving cars to Mobility as a Service and electric cargo bike delivery services. Some of these innovations can play a role in supporting the shift to a low-carbon transport system, but how should we address them?
"Future of transport, how do we deal with it?"
The course "Future of transport, how do we deal with it?" by Climate-KIC wants to support transport professionals with managing the introduction of transport innovations from a public authority perspective in a manner that strengthens long-term sustainability principles.
With a mix of lectures, workshops, site visits and the chance to exchange with peers, during this two-days course in two sessions public authorities will learn to support private companies in developing their innovations while focusing on issues of governance and policy and understanding their role in leading development in the right direction.
