#train2republica brings latest mobility issues to Berlin. Be there!

Only a few days to go until the first departure of the #train2republica.

On May 1, 2018 at 9.55am the #train2republica will depart from Munich central station and and arrive in Berlin at 2:23 pm - punctually for pre:publica.

There are a few seats available. If you want to be part of the journey you can register at train2republica.com until April 27, 2018. Passengers are obliged to have a valid train ticket. Passengers on board the ICE will include undisputed experts who will be up for discussion on the latest mobility issues in a unique atmosphere.

We’re looking forward to Professor Wolfgang Gruel (HDM Stuttgart), who will speak on the subject of “The price of travel: how much should a kilometer of autonomous driving cost?”. Young entrepreneurs Philipp Renz and Marina Knauer from CCUnirent present their hypothesis “Algorithms instead of bus stops. Ride-sharing is the premium opportunity for new mobility.” Michael Barillère-Scholz, Managing Director of ioki, explains how on-demand services and autonomous driving can be integrated into public transport. Other passenger will be Bruno Ginnuth, CEO of CleverShuttle.
