Invitation
It gives me great pleasure to invite you to attend the 1st International Urban Mobility Dialogue (UMD17) to be held from 1st – 4th November 2017 in Berlin, Germany under the patronage of Senator Ms. Ramona Pop, Berlin Senate Department for Economics, Energy and Public Enterprises.
This first edition of Smart City Dialogues aims to facilitate an intense dialogue on emerging topics in the field of Urban Mobility and gather the world expert community, who is able to drive the progress: politicians, businessmen, scientists, industrial and civil representatives.
Why another mobility conference, you may wonder?
The UMD17 is designed to be not just “another conference”, but rather a practical tool for exceptional minds who will work together in an open and collaborative atmosphere on discussing solutions for each participating city’s major mobility challenges in order to meet the needs of society at large and make next steps towards a sustainable and smart future mobility.
My team and I are looking forward to seeing you at the 1st UMD in Berlin!
Yours sincerely
Dr.-Ing. Bernd Stary CEO academus GmbH
Manager and Host of the 1st International Urban Mobility Dialogue
