FSW 2019 | WORSHOP FRANCO-SUEDOIS

IFSTTAR (Institut français des Sciences et Technologies des Transports, de l'Aménagement et des Réseaux) and its Swedish counterparts (Chalmers University, Linköping University, VTI) are organizing the first Smart Cities & Mobility workshop, aimed at bringing together economic and academic players in the field who wish to develop their relations - and of course their projects - with their Swedish and French counterparts.

Dates: June 11 & 12, 2019 on the ESIEE premises in Marne la Vallée

This workshop is organized under the aegis of the Swedish Embassy in France and the French Embassy in Sweden, as well as with the representatives of the H2020 Transport Program Committee, and our supervisory bodies at MTES and MESRI.

As you'll see from the program, this workshop features several "matchmaking" moments for the partners present, as well as a presentation of financing possibilities for the projects presented during the 2-day workshop.

If you're interested, don't hesitate to sign up. The workshop is free, but registration is compulsory.

* Visits and demos

Sense-City is a unique facility located on Paris-Descartes campus (walking distance from workshop venue).

It is a climate chamber that can cover two 400m² areas. On each of these areas, a portion of territory is built on, called a Mini-City, equipped with many sensors to:

• study the performance of facilities and urban materials

• monitor the city of tomorrow by sending appropriate information

• study air, water and soil pollution

You will have the opportunity to visit this facility and discuss with projects leaders and engineers working with this facility.
