A highlight was the New Socio-Economic Benefits of Public Transport plenary session, featuring UITP Board members Laura Shoaf, CBE, Nadine S. Lee and Alexandra Reinagl, and our President also led an impactful plenary session on ‘A Sustainable Future: Preparing Public Transport Markets with the Latest Technological Innovations‘ , all bringing discussions to our audience on what’s next for urban mobility.

The 2024 edition saw many special moments and occasions for UITP and our members, with a celebration of our Regional Training Centres across Asia-Pacific empowering the next generation of public transport leaders and the PTAANZ-UITP Young Professionals Scholarship Programme ceremony.
