In just over a week, Sustainable Bus will join hundreds of key stakeholders in the sustainable transport sector at Europe’s leading conference for zero emission buses and coaches. ZEB 2023 is set to be the 5th and biggest edition yet, offering a powerful blend of insightful conference sessions and unparalleled networking opportunities.

Indeed, the expected number of participants for the 4 half days in Brussels is approaching 400 – and counting! In the past years, the number of participants to the Zero Emission Bus conferences has been growing with 350 attendees in Cologne in 2018 and 400 attendees in Paris in 2021. There’s no denying, according to organizers, that this edition at Busworld Europe will attract more people than any other and break the record of the last ZEB edition in Paris.

The 4 half-day agenda provides visitors and exhibitors at Busworld Europe the opportunity to attend the ZEB Conference for part of the day without missing out on what the rest of Busworld has to offer. This year, the ZEB Conference offers day tickets, which can be secured for a fraction of the price of a 4-day pass. Find all the ticket options here.
