The ITS World Congress 2018 is organized by ERTICO - ITS Europe and hosted by The City of Copenhagen. The Congress will showcase mobility services through demonstrations, exhibition, sessions and debates. Participating in the congress is an excellent opportunity to exchange knowledge and good practice within the ITS community. We look forward to learning from experts, researchers, organisations and companies what will be the future solutions in ITS, and how we can move to the next level.

State of the art solutions
The ITS World Congress hosts expect a turnout of more than 10,000 attendees from 100 countries. The ITS World Congress rotates between Europe, the Asia Pacific region and the Americas, returning to Europe every three years.

The Congress provides a great opportunity for all stakeholders to come together, discuss and make the necessary contacts to move initiatives forward and to develop their business by exhibiting and demonstrating state of the art ITS solutions. The Congress also showcases the latest ITS achievements from the city and region hosting the Congress, and can help increase awareness of ITS in the host region itself.
