Invitation: Let´s talk about the future
The City of Helsinki invites you to join a discussion about the future of urban transport.
The City of Helsinki invites you to join a Webinar to discuss about the future of urban transport.
17th of December 2020 at 17:30-19:00 (UTC+2 - Helsinki Local Time)
Forecasting the future is a prerequisite for creating the most functional city in the world. The webinar will discuss the City of Helsinki’s future analysis of transport and its findings.
How will global phenomena affect urban transport? How can cities and their residents be prepared for these changes? The analysis provides not only a pathway for the strategic development of the City’s transport system but also enables the sharing of Helsinki’s best practices in international contexts.
An international forerunner of sustainable development and mobility, the City of Helsinki is committed to assess uncertain variables and future opportunities so as to ensure the total optimization of its transport system.
