ITS World Congress
From revenue collection to signalling solutions, Thales has kept Singapore moving and connected since 2011. We are an integral partner of the LTA and SMRT, working collaboratively towards building a world-class transportation system that caters to the demands of a fast-growing national ridership.
This year, we are proud to be a major partner of the 26th Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) World Congress, a leading global transportation technology conference happening on 21-25 October 2019 at the Suntec Singapore Convention and Exhibition Centre.
Jointly hosted by the LTA and Intelligent Transportation Society, the event is centred on the theme, “Smart Mobility, Empowering Cities” with an expected turnout rate of over 10,000 participants and 300 exhibitors.
Thales will be present at the following breakout sessions to address some of the key trending topics in transportation, namely digitalisation and cybersecurity.
C-Level Forum on Mobility Solutions for Smart Cities
21 October 2019, 1.30pm – 3.30pm
As Singapore evolves into a Smart Nation, we can expect to see a rise in the use of digital technologies to enhance comfort, convenience and reliability of our public transport systems. In line with the forum agenda, Thales Singapore Country Director and CEO Kevin Chow will be speaking on Digital Technologies Empowering Data-Driven Decisions.
Breakfast Panel - Cybersecurity for Rail
22 October 2019, 7.30am - 8.30am
It’s time to get our (cyber) defences up! Cybersecurity for rail is proving to be a hot topic, for real. Rail networks are increasingly exposed to cyberattacks as they harness technological innovations, putting cities at risk of major disruptions. Thales panelist, Senior Cybersecurity Authority Benoit Bruyère will share insights on tackling cyberattacks in the rail industry. Read about his take on safeguarding rail networks in this article.
