Event Alert: 16th ITS World Congress — Sept 21-25, 2009 @ Stockholm, Sweden
ITS World Congresses gather some 5,000 participants from around the world looking to share experiences and build networks. As a decision-maker, manufacturer, supplier or consultant within the private or public sector, the World Congress is an opportunity for you to learn more about what ITS can do to improve the efficiency of your operations. What’s more, it is an excellent opportunity to show the general public how ITS can help them in their daily lives.
Delegates will include representatives from:
- International organisations and national governments
- Regional, local and municipal authorities
- Security and safety organisations
- CEOs from industry
- Equipment manufacturers and suppliers
- Service developers and service providers
- Software developers and systems integrators
- Automotive and industrial designers

- ITS project management and financiers
- ITS consultancies and advisors
- ITS users and members organisations
- Public interest groups and press
There will also be an opportunity for the public to visit the Exhibition and demonstration sites on the last day of the World Congress in Stockholm.
The Congress format consists of several different types of sessions. Along with the traditional types of sessions (Plenary, Executive, Special Interest and Technical/Scientific), this year the Congress organizers are introducing the two new formats: Interactive Sessions and Lunchtime Debates. Sessions typically last 90 minutes.
The Exhibit Hall provides a venue for public sector organizations and private sector vendors to show off their latest technology. The Exhibit Hall will be open to Congress delegates September 22-25; on Friday, September 25, it will also be open to the public.
The 2009 ITS World Congress will also feature four demonstration sites where Congress delegates can watch ITS in action: one is located inside the Exhibit Hall, two are located just outside the building in the parking lot, and one is accessible by shuttle bus. Congress delegates can also go on any of 11 technical visits to see ITS in action in and around Stockholm.
Social events include receptions on Monday (September 21) and Tuesday (September 22) evenings and a gala dinner Wednesday (September 23) evening in Stockholm City Hall, famous as the location where Nobel Prizes are awarded.
