Connecting the ITS Community
ERTICO organises the ITS European Congress every two years and elevates the stage globally, hosting the ITS World Congress in the EMEA region every third year. These unique events are planned and delivered with the Host City and in close collaboration with the regional organisations ITS America and ITS Asia-Pacific.
In 2023, we made significant strides in advancing the mobility agenda with our events playing a central role. Open dialogue, knowledge sharing, and lessons learned across the ITS community contribute to addressing emerging challenges and fostering the development of innovative new technologies, solutions and services. ERTICO’s ITS Congresses support these efforts by bringing together stakeholders, industry influencers, and the wider mobility ecosystem.

30th ITS World Congress Dubai, UAE
The 30th ITS World Congress, from 16-20 September 2024. As the first ITS World Congress presented by ERTICO in UAE, this event exemplifies our commitment to steering the future of intelligent and sustainable mobility on a global scale under the banner ‘Mobility Driven by ITS’.
With more than 40 successful ITS Congresses under our belt, we are dedicated to shaping ITS on a global scale. This year, we expect to attract 20,000 participants, offering an unparalleled opportunity for Partners and stakeholders to engage directly with each other. The deep expertise of Dubai’s Road and Transport Authority (RTA) in transportation planning and smart technology, coupled with its proactive approach to innovation, provides a vibrant backdrop for the event. This commitment to ITS along with its strategic geographic position at the nexus of Asia, Europe, and Africa establishes the city as a prime location to foster international collaboration and innovation. Dubai’s role as a global hub for trade and commerce will further enrich discussions, enabling a dynamic platform for innovation and global partnerships in mobility.
Join us in Dubai to be part of this transformative event that will shape the future of transportation, driven by intelligent mobility solutions that aim for zero accidents, zero delays, and minimal environmental impacts.
16th ITS European Congress Seville, Spain
The 2025 ITS European Congress in Seville, 2 – 4 June, represents an important moment for stakeholders from across Europe and beyond to come together and delve into future-oriented solutions for clean, resilient, and smart mobility. Under ERTICO’s leadership together with the host city and ITS Spain, this event aligns with our joint vision of contributing to significant European initiatives such as the European Green Deal and the Sustainable and Smart Mobility Strategy. This Congress will spotlight how local and regional advancements can reflect broader European ambitions for a more sustainable transportation future.
Seville, with its well-implemented cycling networks and commitment to cleaner transport, is an ideal backdrop, embodying the innovation and spirit of smart mobility. The Congress will leverage the city’s achievements to present engaging dialogues and networking opportunities, advancing the agenda of making Europe’s mobility landscape more sustainable, efficient and integrated.
