Transport for smart cities 2016: scaling innovation in Europe

Join Altreonic for a full day at the Transport for smart cities conference day on 28 January 2016 in Brussels. Conference website: http://www.smartmobility2016.eu

Altreonic will discuss under the topic "Mobility as a Service: what does it mean?". Mobility as a Service is often mentioned as the next step on the Mobility roadmap. This is often interpreted as a providing additional services to an existing mobility and transport infrastructure. We argue that this might not be enough to reach the next step. We should define it as a next level of Quality (QoS) in the exercise of our Mobility needs. In this short presentation we explore the idea of applying the principles of packet switching to filling in the mobility needs, especially in the context of sustainable urban mobility whereby electrification goes hand in hand with taking another look at how a vehicle is developed, used and supplied with energy.
