Global Mobility Call will hold its 3rd edition from 19 to 21 November. With a combined conference and exhibition format, GMC offers the most advanced opportunities and solutions for sustainable mobility development to public and private agents. Sustainable Bus has been media partner of the exhibition last year, and our editorial staff was in Madrid to cover it.

The event, featuring a combined conference and exhibition format, is organised by IFEMA MADRID and Smobhub. “The aim is to become the sector’s benchmark once again for the industries and the different public and private actors forming part of the framework that today drives projects, strategies and developments aimed at managing the sustainable movement of people and goods”, GMC states.

Global Mobility Call back in late 2024

In 2023, the GMC Congress section closed with 8,000 attendees from 37 countries and nearly 10,000 people followed the event on its LiveConnect digital platform. In total, more than 120 round tables of the sector and conferences were held with the participation of more than 500 speakers, 40% of whom were international, including professionals, public representatives and CEOs of large national and international companies.

The GMC Expo segment was attended by 104 exhibiting companies (76% more than in 2022), in what was the largest meeting point and promotion of public-private collaboration amongst public administrations and the business sector. In addition, innovative products and solutions for the development of sustainable mobility and road safety were presented.

To achieve these objectives, GMC is once again supported by the Ministry of Transport, Mobility and the Urban Agenda, with the collaboration of the Community of Madrid and Madrid City Council. It will also count on the participation of major partners, including companies and public bodies, as well as Spanish and international sectoral associations.

In its last edition, the Congress, amongst many topics, addressed the issues of the role of electrification and other alternative fuels in decarbonisation, transport multimodality, new infrastructures, alongside innovation, digitalisation and new technologies in the development of mobility, among other topics.
