RSSPreparations for the 18th edition of the IRF (1201 IRF Geneva) World Road Meeting are advancing and it is predicted to be a memorable event in terms of the technical programme, its participants and the exhibition itself. With papers being presented from all over the world covering ten thematic topics, daily innovation cafés, a remarkable line-up of keynote speakers and many business and networking opportunities, this is a must-attend conference and exhibition for the transport and mobility sector.

Exclusive attention will be paid to future development through the IRF Young Professional Lab sessions, organised every day. We will reward the best paper presented in the IRF YP Lab and make sure that we create the conditions to turn bright and innovative ideas into world-changing solutions!
