ULTIMO Workshop @ UITP Summit 2025
The ULTIMO project is hosting a workshop “Overcoming Deployment Barriers for Automated Mobility in Europe” on 16 June 2025 from 15:30 – 17:30 during the UITP Summit in Hamburg (Germany).
This workshop, organised within the framework of the ULTIMO project, provides a platform for stakeholders from various organisations to come together and discuss the key challenges European AV industry is facing, such as vehicle availability and technological maturity. The goal of the workshop is to explore potential solutions to these challenges ahead of future large-scale deployment projects.
Hosting the workshop in Hamburg offers an opportunity to engage local stakeholders, such as MOIA and New Mobility Solutions, while also welcoming key European CCAM stakeholders, including the CCAM Partnership and the European Commission. Additionally, UITP will facilitate a technical visit for workshop attendees following the meeting.
