The Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg has won its bid to host the ITS World Congress 2021. The application compiled by PROPROJEKT was endorsed by the European Organisation for Intelligent Transport Systems ERTICO at the end of October at the ITS World Congress 2017 in Montreal. 2021 Hamburg will present to the world the most modern German technologies in traffic and transport and demonstrate them in real application. Focal points of the Hamburg application were amongst others the areas of intelligent infrastructures, autonomous driving, ride-sharing and connected mobility services. The annual convention traditionally attracts over 10,000 attendees from around the world, including all well-known companies in the industry. With its successful bid, Hamburg was able to assert itself in a strong field of competitors with Dubai and Milan.
PROPROJEKT was assigned by the Ministry of Economy, Transport and Innovation of the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg to develop a storyline and compile a bid book for the Hamburg 2021 bid from January to March 2017. This contains the coordination and quality assurance of the bid book content as well as the professional supervision of the bid book production.
