Alfonso Gil, Deputy Mayor and Councillor for Mobility and Sustainability in Bilbao City Council, will open the forum and Pilar Elejoste, Deputy Director of DeustoTech and researcher in the DSM (Deusto Smart Mobility) Group, will be the moderator.
In this forum, they will all present different innovation projects in mass passenger transport within a context of sustainable mobility in cities.
