What will the cities of the future look like? And which role does mobility play? 🌆🚊 Last week, our Head of Marketing and Communications Jesco E. Huber participated in a panel at World Passenger Festival to explore these big questions. Together with the other panelists Enrique Gómez Cruz (Secretaría de Movilidad de la CDMX), Michał Tusk (Zarząd Transportu Miejskiego), Jonas Damidavičius, PhD (JUDU), Angelos Chronis (A.I.T. Austrian Institute of Technology Gmbh) and moderated by Renée Ramdohr, Jesco discussed key aspects of #peoplecentric cities that enable #sustainablemobility: 💡Getting people curious: There are other ways to get from A to B than the private car. As people only see what they know, we have to show them all the options. 🤝 Getting people involved: Cities belong to all of us. And they should be designed to meet the needs of the people. It is crucial to hear the voice of all stakeholders (citizens, passengers, tech providers, ...) which mobility offerings and infrastructure are needed and possible. 💬 Getting people onboard: Future mobility is about behaviour change. Therefore solutions need to be easily accessible and attractive to use - ideally at the same convenience, comfort and cost as the private car. Only if all means of transport in cities become part of one system will sustainable mobility win. Thank you to all the participants for the insights and the interesting discussion! 

EUROPE 🇪🇺 v NORTH AMERICA 🇺🇸 This week is European #MobilityWeek! It's also the North American Bikeshare & Scootershare Association conference. ⚡️ From 16 - 22nd September, cities across Europe will take part in Mobility Week, promoting new transport solutions and progressing towards a sustainable future. When we compare the shared mobility landscape of US, it is clear that Europe leads the way. Although North America is starting to close the gap based on 2021 data, Europe excels, even when it comes down to vehicles and trips per capita. 👉 Interested in more analysis of shared mobility in Europe? Stay tuned for our latest European Shared Market Index, dropping next Tuesday! #sharedmobility #micromobility

🌟 Today’s International Car Free Day marks one of the highlights of European Mobility Week. A day dedicated to alternative, more sustainable mobility options around the globe 🚲 🚌 🚶♀️, it also marks the penultimate day of the EMW. We seem to be hesitant to let go of our cars, we consider them precious possessions, even though they might paradoxically limit our mobility. Here are some thoughts: ➡ Instead of talking about closing roads, why don’t we talk about opening them for other modes and for people? ➡ It is not a question of completely abolishing cars, but only of reducing their dominance and the devastating consequences of their dominance.  ➡ Less traffic and reduced speed not only minimize pollution, it also makes our cities safer and more liveable. ➡ People should have the right to choose their preferred mode of transportation and not be forced into a decision by a lack of infrastructure  ➡ A broad and close-knit public transportation offer that includes all forms of mobility is the solution. It offers more freedom and flexibility, tends to everyone’s needs without excluding people, and it will make us see that our dependency on cars might be more of a social construct than a reality. Just try it for a day or two. Choosing one of the many public transportation options will be liberating instead of limiting. #CarFreeDay #EuropeanMobilityWeek #EMW #SustainableMobility

Traveling quickly and affordably used to be as easy as hopping into the car, but now urban congestion, limited parking, and high ownership costs make private cars less attractive.   Public transportation and shared services, like ridesharing, offer faster and more sustainable options, but they face issues such as lack of integration, delays, and complicated pricing. The need for better solutions and cost-effective transportation is high. The future of integrated mobility should be the promise of a seamless transportation experience for people and goods where infrastructure and assets are used efficiently. But what is the key to such integrated mobility?   Join us at the Porsche Consulting Mobility Lounge in Berlin, where we will discuss the progress made in achieving a fully integrated, seamless mobility system with industry and political experts. We will also explore the major obstacles that need to be overcome to make this vision a reality.   Panelists: Björn Bender | CEO | Rail Europe Meike Niedbal | Former State Secretary Mobility | Berliner Senatsverwaltung Stefan Seer | Lead Integrated Digital Urban Planning | AIT Austrian Institute of Technology GmbH Moderation: Philipp Bächstädt | TV Presenter and Journalist ⭐ Philipp Rode, Executive Director of LSE Cities and the Urban Age Programme at the The London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE), will deliver the keynote. 📅 June 12, 2023 🕐 6 – 8 PM (CEST) ➡️ Register now: https://lnkd.in/eMfNgDDc #Integrated #Seamless #Future #Mobility #Transportation #Urban #Suburban
