Digital technologies must drive the transformation of the mobility and transportation model towards a more sustainable, innovative, and efficient model, complying with the decarbonization and air quality objectives assumed internationally. To this end, action must be taken in several areas:

• Promote the digital transformation of public transport as an efficient alternative to the private vehicle.
• Optimizing the transport system through digitalization.
• Accelerate the penetration of zero-emission mobility.
• To digitally empower transport professionals.

Active mobility solutions (walking, cycling) and public transport are the most environmentally, economically, and socially sustainable transport options. Therefore, it is necessary to boost their use and development, so that these solutions become more attractive to potential users.

Along with this, the digital transformation of the transport system (including freight transport) will facilitate modal integration, service optimization, and improved traffic management, resulting in greater competitiveness and sustainability.

The development of digital technologies also has a great potential to transform the automotive industry, enabling the transition to new, more sustainable business models and a collaborative and interdependent ecosystem between traditional agents, manufacturers and suppliers, and collateral sectors.

These major digital transformation processes cannot be carried out without industry professionals who are aware of the technologies and systems available on the market in terms of digitalization. For the public administration and private companies in the transport sector to lead this process by improving their efficiency and competitiveness, it is necessary for their workers to have the necessary training.
