Barcelona, Spain
In 2023, the Technology of Mobility Conference and Exhibition (TMCE) welcomed 2,100+ delegates, hosted 12 panel sessions and 80+ technical sessions supported with 400+ presentations, and featured 130+ sponsors and exhibitors, with 92% of participants rating the overall experience as good /excellent.
Following the success of TMCE in 2023, the event has evolved in alignment with the strategy of FISITA to become the World Mobility Conference (WMC). This rebrand reflects the broader, more inclusive vision of the future of technology of mobility.
The FISITA World Mobility Conference (WMC) is a unique meeting of technology leaders and experts from
the world’s leading automotive and mobility brands and one of the most important events in the international mobility systems calendar.
The event, held at the Palau de Congressos de Catalunya in Barcelona, promises to be the hub for the international mobility systems engineering community. FISITA members and global industry stakeholders will gather to discuss and engage with experts on the technology of mobility under one roof. This provides a valuable opportunity for face-to-face engagement, networking, and refocusing community goals.
By attending WMC, you can expect to meet with over 2,000+ senior industry experts, hear from 300+ speakers and visit over 130+ exhibition stands.
The FISITA World Mobility Conference is an industry flagship event for all engaged in the development and delivery of the technology of mobility. From student to CTO, get ready to set the scene for the future mobility engineering.
The FISITA World Mobility Conference provides in-depth insights into the seven key topics identified by the FISITA community as technology of mobility priorities. Each topic varies in duration, with some lasting one day and others extending across the full 3-day programme. This structure allows for flexible participation tailored to your interests and availability. During registration you have the option to book a single topic pass, or choose from a variety of all-access passes to attend the full event.
Speakers and panellists discuss ways in which new technologies and innovative business models will impact and shape the movement of people and goods.
Decarbonisation of mobility ultimately looks set to be achieved through electrification of the mainstream fleet; experts will discuss everything from battery electric vehicles to other important solutions which can help to improve fuel and energy consumption and reduce harmful emissions.
As mobility shifts away from fossil fuels, the role of energy is critical; from clean energy production and storage to supply and distribution, this topic area explores the roles of the various stakeholders and the regulatory and business environments in which they will operate.
Experts in safety and automated driving explore a range of topics from advanced driver assistance and intelligent vehicle safety systems to highly sophisticated automated driving technologies and the business models they will support.
The all-important connection between the vehicle and the road is shaped and defined by brake, tyre, and chassis engineers whose remit now includes technologies for the transition to electrification and the solutions for new non-exhaust emissions rules that include brake and tyre wear.
From the use of digital tools in the product development lifecycle to the as-yet unknown potential for artificial intelligence in every aspect of vehicle manufacturing, this topic addresses technologies at the cutting-edge mobility engineering.
Sustainable mobility is about much more than reducing tailpipe emissions; experts will consider ways for OEMs and suppliers to examine all aspects of their business, from manufacturing and logistics to material and energy sourcing, applying circular economy principles throughout the product lifecycle.
As part of the FISITA World Mobility Conference agenda, we are inviting students and young engineers from around the world to demonstrate their skills by tackling real-world social and environmental challenges within the technology of mobility industry by entering the FISITA WMC Student Competition, free of charge.
This competition provides a platform for you to develop and present innovative solutions, showcasing expertise in areas such as engineering design, manufacturing, and technical analysis.
By participating, you will gain valuable experience in project management, budgeting, and presentation skills, all of which are essential for a successful mobility engineering career.
We are looking for ideas that combine thoughtful analysis with practical applications, including cost-benefit evaluations and business plans. The competition will focus on the following topics:
Urban mobility: improving city transport systems.
Battery recycling and reuse: advancing the circular economy in mobility.
