Mobilising Mobility: Like two peas in a pod: Digital Twins for urban planning - LEAD

Mobilising Mobility: Like two peas in a pod: Digital Twins for urban planning - LEAD
10 November 2020 - 14:00-15:00 CEST

Cities are on the lookout for innovative clean freight solutions. The rise of an on-demand economy and the “uberisation” of urban logistics together with the mission of becoming climate-neutral paves the way for innovative solutions. 

This is where Digital Twins come in: this is a digital replica of a complex real-world urban environment and represents different processes, actors and their interaction(s). 

In addition to setting the context and bringing clarity to this complex concept, this webinar will showcase trailblazing initiatives that are evidence of its potential for more sustainable urban mobility planning. The webinar is promoted by LEAD, an H2020 project, that will create Digital Twins of urban logistics networks in six cities, to support experimentation and decision-making with on-demand logistics operations in a public-private urban setting.

This webinar will be moderated by Giacomo Lozzi

Featured speakers include:

• Andrea Halmos (DG Connect, European Commission)
• Irene Blázquez Jimenez (LEAD, EMT Madrid)
• Roland van der Heijden (City of Rotterdam)
