  • CEO Roundtable: Entering the Era of Mobility 5.0 Recorded Live @ IT-TRANS, Karlsruhe 2026
    Mar 10 2026

    As cities grapple with congestion, climate commitments and rapid technological change, the future of mobility is being reshaped by new governance models, digital systems and emerging technologies. Recorded live at IT-TRANS in Karlsruhe, this CEO Roundtable explores how transport authorities, cities and technology providers are navigating the transition toward what many are calling the era of Mobility 5.0.

    Hosted by Dr. Kaan Yıldızgöz, the discussion brings together a diverse group of mobility leaders from across Europe and Africa: Endre Angelvik, EVP Radical Innovation at Ruter; Tobias Brzoskowski, Managing Director of New Mobility Solutions Hamburg; Fernando Andela, CEO of the Maputo Transit Agency; Guido Di Pasquale, Managing Director of PAVE Europe; and Dr. Eva Fraedrich, Senior Manager at Ramboll Management Consulting in Berlin.

    The conversation examines how public transport authorities are evolving from traditional service managers into mobility orchestrators, responsible for integrating multiple transport modes and digital platforms. Panelists share experiences from cities such as Oslo and Hamburg, highlighting how governance structures, data infrastructure and strategic pilot projects are enabling innovation. The discussion also explores the growing role of digitalisation and data in transforming operations, integrating shared mobility services and improving decision-making across complex urban transport systems.

    The panel also tackles some of the most debated topics in mobility today, including autonomous vehicles, robotaxis and their potential relationship with public transport. Alongside this, the conversation considers the realities faced by cities in the Global South, where informal transport plays a major role, and looks at the growing push toward electrification and sustainable fleets. Together, these perspectives provide a global view of how mobility systems may evolve over the next decade and the governance choices that will shape that future.

  • From the Winter Olympics to Everyday Mobility with Dr. Francesca Pili, FNM Group
    Mar 2 2026

    Milano-Cortina 2026 was not a single-city Games. With events spread across regions and alpine corridors, it was a real stress test for regional mobility, governance and passenger experience.

    Dr. Francesca Pili, Executive Director and Board Member at FNM Group, explains how an integrated mobility model can deliver everyday reliability while scaling for major events. She covers system-level optimisation across infrastructure, fleets, renewable energy and digital operations, plus FNM’s decarbonisation roadmap including fleet renewal, renewable generation and hydrogen trains.

    You’ll hear practical lessons on capacity planning under uncertainty, aligning stakeholders early, and designing legacy that lasts. The conversation also looks ahead to 2030: automation, AI literacy, and why cultural change is essential for digital transformation.

  • From PTA to System Orchestrator with Endre Angelvik of Ruter AS
    Feb 2 2026

    Public transport authorities are being challenged to rethink their role in an era of climate pressure, digital acceleration and rising public expectations. The question is no longer just how to operate services, but how to orchestrate entire mobility systems.

  • Inside Dubai’s Taxi Revolution with RTA's Adel Shakeri
    Sep 1 2025

    Dubai’s taxi sector has undergone a dramatic transformation over the past three decades — evolving from unregulated, individually owned cars into a unified, technology-led system that is fully integrated with public transport. In this episode, Dr. Kaan Yildizgoz meets Adel Shakeri, Director of Strategy, Planning and Business Development at the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) in Dubai, to uncover the lessons behind this success.

    Adel shares how RTA transitioned to a franchise model, set clear KPIs, and integrated global ride-hailing platforms into the city’s operations. He explains why safety and customer satisfaction are top priorities, how real-time data improves service, and why average taxi wait times are under 3.5 minutes for most passengers. The conversation also explores contract structures, operator responsibilities, and the importance of stakeholder buy-in for lasting reform.

    For transport leaders and city planners, this episode offers practical insights on operational excellence, public–private partnerships, and preparing for innovations such as self-driving taxis and a full shift to e-hailing.
