Full in-person capacity!

In a challenging geopolitical context — marked internationally by rising tensions and vehicle and component tariffs that are reshaping value chains and industrial competitiveness, and within Europe by the recently launched Automotive Industry Action Plan aimed at promoting a strong, competitive, and sustainable sector — a key question arises:

How can the pathway to net zero in road transport be defined?

In this scenario, public policy — from emissions regulation and green taxation to innovation incentives and infrastructure investment — underscores the importance of clear, coherent, and ambitious political leadership to accelerate this transition. Europe must harmonise national regulations to prevent the erosion of shared competitiveness.
