Seizing the benefits of data, automation, and more

Digitalisation is changing public transport. Given the challenges that the sector faces today, such as the workforce shortage, automating and digitalising business processes, as well as the further exploitation of data, are key to mitigating this risk and advancing public transport.

For public transport, digitalisation can help the sector update business processes, generate new revenue streams, create new business models, achieve efficiencies, reduce costs, and improve safety and services for passengers. At its core, digitalisation is the process of changing business through technology and data.
