Europe’s automotive manufacturers invite young people to shape future of transport

14 April 2011 #SMMT News

The car, truck and bus makers in Europe have together opened a campaign to invite young adults across Europe to share their ideas and thoughts about the future of transport.

‘Our Future Mobility Now’ seeks to give today’s youth a voice about how to move people and goods in an increasingly fast-paced, connected and global world and respond to environmental, societal and economic challenges at the same time. Through an online competition for the most creative ideas, the automotive industry will invite up to 50 young people to a special launch event in Brussels in June to explore topics such as new mobility services, future skills, new technologies and connectivity. The dialogue will then be continued online as well as with on-site activities across Europe.

The event in Brussels will be held in close cooperation with the EU ‘Youth on the Move’ project promoting mobility in education and training throughout Europe. The online competition for event invitation will run until the end of May 2011 and is open to young people between 18 and 30 years old living in Europe.
