This year’s ITS World Congress will gather thousands of stakeholders from all across the world to promote greater levels of safety, efficiency, sustainability, and connectivity in transport systems worldwide. ITS America is excited to provide an opportunity at this event for startups to shine on an international stage.  Transportation for Tomorrow: Investors and Inventors will do just that.

This two-part programme will give high-tech transport startups a spot on the show floor to demonstrate their most innovative ideas and technologies as a part of our Entrepreneurial Village.
