1. Future Mobility:
Transport Innovation for the Intelligent City
An International Expert Forum
25.3.2014
London School of Economics and Political Science
Future Mobility is a 1-day expert forum jointly hosted by LSE Cities and InnoZ, in cooperation with
LSE Enterprise. It will bring together leading experts in future transport and mobility systems from
the UK and Germany. Participants will be drawn from across government, industry and policy
including public transport authorities, transport industry, technology leaders, policy innovators and
academic experts. It will provide a platform for in-depth dialogue and knowledge-exchange on
future urban mobility and transport systems. The aim is to engage a community of transport
innovators working on future mobility systems and smart urban infrastructure across science,
industry, cities and government. The Forum will present findings of a joint LSE Cities/InnoZ research
survey on mobility trends in Berlin and London as well as a number of innovative case studies, and
address current global trends in shared mobility and sustainable urban transport systems.
Sessions will be introduced by leading experts in short, concise presentations followed by group
dialogue and open discussion. Ample time will be provided for networking and bilateral exchange.
