Agenda

Reimagining rail: innovation to get society back on (sustainable) track

At the 10th International Railway Summit (IRS10) world-class speakers will debate the most pressing issues facing the sector: the journey to post-COVID recovery, how we can build sustainable mobility systems, and the cutting-edge innovation that can realise transformative projects.

What are the lessons to learn from the pandemic? What actions can we take to meet emission targets and optimise efficiency in operations and maintenance? How can we improve the door-to-door passenger journey, from ticketing to stations to onboard experience? All these subjects and more will be tackled by the very people who can change the course of transport and the lives of the people and businesses who depend on it.
