TaaS Technology – Twice as Nice
Following on from the success of the inaugural TaaS Technology conference, our 2019 event will include 2 co-located conferences.
TaaS Technology – CAVs and Future Mobility – https://www.taas.technology/cavs/topics
TaaS Technology – Energising Future Mobility – https://www.taas.technology/energy/topics
This international conference is being organised with our partners Warwick University (WMG) and Coventry University – both are key players in CAVs, EV, Energy, Infrastructure and Future Mobility projects.
Attendees to the event can purchase one ticket to have full access to both conferences providing access to industry-leading insiders delivering more than 80 presentations spanning all the key topics. The conference will equip the delegates with an up-to-date overview of the status of the industry and provide them with many opportunities to meet other key players within this community.
There is a strong over-lap between the two conferences. Attendees and exhibitors are exposed to all relevant supply chains, customer and supplier bases, saving time and money by attending a single event covering all core themes. The TaaS Technology conferences are put together by leading industry experts covering these topics – bringing together the most significant developments in each of these areas.

“The future of mobility including CAVs, EVs, Energy/Battery and Infrastructure continue to be hot topics right now. Transportation as we know it is ripe for disruption. With traditional car manufacturers, OEMs, software companies, component providers, energy companies, government and new transportation companies investing billions of pounds into the research and development of CAVs and future mobility systems, we are excited to be organising the 2nd TaaS Technology conference to connect, inform and inspire those shaping the revolution in mobility,” said Sukhi Bhadal, Event Director, TaaS Technology Conference.
“After the successful launch of the conference and digital magazine in 2018, we are thrilled to announce the dates for the 2019 event and growing the event into 2 co-located conferences. The two-day conferences and exhibition will be a unique event allowing for education, influence and networking between the major international players who are driving forward the new mobility revolution, a revolution which has the potential to save lives and bring new mobility solutions to millions of people,” added Bhadal.
“The TaaS technology conference has quickly become the “must attend” UK event for the ITS sector. The 2018 programme was terrific, and the event was well organised, informative, interactive and enjoyable for the participants. I look forward to seeing you in 2019 and discussing how smart mobility is benefiting society,” Richard Harris, Director at HMI Technologies and a member of the conference program board.
“With the Success of the TaaS Technology conference in 2018, I am very much looking forward to returning next year. For 2019, the co-located twin conferences of “CAVs and Future Mobility” and “Energising Future Mobility”, means that there will be a depth that enables participants to dig down into new learnings and insights. With the dramatic growth of the New Mobility sector, transportation and automotive are in the box seat for an exciting road ahead, and it’s at TaaS Technology where you’ll find all the latest developments and trends,” added James Carter, Principal Consultant at Vision Mobility and a member of the conference program board.
The TaaS Technology event will take place on the 4th and 5th June at The National Motorcycle Museum, Birmingham, UK. The event is supported by the quarterly digital title TaaS Technology Magazine.
