Organised by the European Parking Association (EPA) from its new base in Brussels, the 21st European Parking Conference & Exhibition is the next edition of the sector’s flagship biennial event.
The conference and exhibition are dedicated to showcasing innovation in smart parking management and how this innovation will help shape the future of sustainable urban mobility across Europe and beyond. Policymakers, industry experts and public authorities will tackle pressing issues such as electromobility and its impact on parking (both on and off-street); kerbside management and urban logistics; and digitalisation and data sharing as mandated by EU legislation and required commercially to ensure digital visibility.
In line with the theme “Reshaping Urban Space – Delivering sustainable parking management and mobility solutions”, the conference will focus on major societal challenges such as the twin green and digital transitions at the urban level and applicable Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) principles. In addition to intense knowledge sharing, the Conference & Exhibition will allow industry players, established and new entrants, to display their products and services with booths and sponsored info sessions.
This 21st edition will feature an interactive format with a focus on discussion and participation. In addition to plenary sessions in the Auditorium, workshops and breakout sessions will provide a dynamic platform for the sector to dive deeper into the selected topics, fostering collaboration and solution-driven dialogue. The Conference & Exhibition will showcase EPA’s own activities, initiatives and publications and offer delegates and exhibitors a multiplicity of high-quality networking opportunities.
At the Opening Plenary Session of the EPA Conference on 17 September, CEO Joost Vantomme, will take the stage to highlight the importance of digitalisation, data-driven solutions, and cross-sector collaboration in shaping intelligent transport systems. Alongside other speakers, including Nigel Williams, EPA Paola Cossu, FIT Consulting / ALICE Giuliano Mingardo, Erasmus UPT Karen Vancluysen, POLIS Network, Tom Antonissen, European Parking Association, Theo Thuis, European Parking Association - Q-Park, Joost will discuss how integrated solutions can enhance efficiency, sustainability, and user experience across European cities.
