Smart talk at transport conference

The future of transport will be covered by New York-based Greg Lindsay as the keynote speaker at “T-Tech”, the Transport Innovation Conference organised by ITS New Zealand in Auckland on March 19 and 20.

T-Tech is to be ITS New Zealand’s most ambitious event of the year with more than 200 people expected, representing government, transport, and technology communities.

The programme will enlighten attendees on international ideas, trends and emerging technology.

It will also highlight New Zealand’s responses to the challenges and opportunities ahead, and some of the local research, trials and the world class innovation taking place here.

A journalist, urbanist and futurist, Lindsay’s work is focussed on how cities will change and make the most of opportunities from emerging transport technology and mobility solutions.

Lindsay will lead a programme featuring several respected international speakers who have been invited by ITS New Zealand to share their knowledge and experience.

T-Tech is being held at the Pullman Hotel and covers transport technology, mobility solutions and “liveable” communities.

The conference aims to educate attendees on how innovations could result in safety improvements, reduced pollution and better urban planning. The impacts of changes in these areas have vast potential for economic gain, improving health, security, equality, and liveability.
