Visitors to the 2027 ITS World Congress are promised a warm British welcome, a rich history, an impressive present – and an exciting future when they come to the host city of Birmingham, UK.
Chris Lane (pictured) is leading Transport for West Midlands’ work in hosting the event at the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution.
He told the Daily News that the event will “not only showcase the great innovations in transport technology, but also to see the many great sites and cultures the UK has to offer”.
A team from the West Midlands is on the UK & Ertico ITS-Europe Pavilion here in Atlanta discussing exhibition and partnership opportunities.
“There are hundreds of companies here, and we’re hoping to chat to as many as possible,” Lane continued. “Initial conversations really have made me confident that we will be able to deliver the Congress we want, to leave a lasting, positive impression about British ITS.”
Seven companies are exhibiting on the UK & Ertico Pavilion. They are: AGD and its sister company MAV Systems, Immense, Intelligent Instruments, Navtech Radar, Nicander and Zenzic. The stand is shared with Ertico, and also features Here Technologies, ITS Sweden member Triplesign Systems, as well as Ertico’s own Innovation Platform, Enhanced European Valet Parking.
ITS World Congress 2027 takes place at the National Exhibition Centre, Birmingham from 25-29 October. It’s the first time the UK has hosted the event since London 2006.
