CCAM for society, how can cities unlock the potential of Connected, Cooperative & Automated Mobility (CCAM)?


Connected, Cooperative & Automated Mobility (CCAM) is emerging around the globe, but what benefits can it really bring to society in general and urban areas in particular? This session will bring US and EU experts together to share experiences and lessons learned from various international Connected & Automated Vehicle operations. After setting the scene with international findings and multistakeholder perspectives, discussions will focus on what role CCAM can have in urban areas taking into account societal perspectives such as safety, environmental impact, liveability and inclusion. Moreover, how can authorities and road operators safeguard societal standards while facilitating CCAM to unlock its potential?
