Our transport system is facing a new paradigm driven by rapid digital transformation. Business in the Community (BITC) and Fujitsu would like you to join a leadership conversation to help inform the transport sector’s response to the key unintended social and environmental consequences of digital transformation within the sector.

Join us to:

be at the forefront of the sector’s response to the unintended social and environmental consequences of digital transformation by shaping an action plan identifying its key priorities. Round table discussions will help to inform a position paper to be presented to key government and business stakeholders for the sector following the event
hear case studies from Fujitsu (Russell Goodenough, Client Managing Director), Waysphere (Nic Cary, former Head of Data Policy, DfT), Heathrow Airport (Steve Armitage, IT Futures Manager) other leading organisations embracing an inclusive digital revolution
develop a better understanding of the key social and environmental risks and opportunities arising from digital transformation in the sector, and how to maintain trust in your brand as you tackle them

Digital transformation will change the way we design, operate and use transport immeasurably. The change has already begun; intelligent mobility and data sharing is enabling an increasingly seamless passenger experience; network capacity is being digitally enhanced; customer service has become more intelligent and social; and passengers benefit from improved affordability and choice.

But for digital’s great potential to be realised, the sector must address some fundamental challenges. Employees will need new skills; suppliers will need to be empowered to keep pace; service design must be inclusive; and above all, trust must be at the heart of decision making, driven by transparent and visible data sharing.

Business in the Community invites transport sector businesses and their stakeholders to explore how digital transformation can help to build and maintain trust in the sector whilst seizing the opportunities it enables.

Speakers include:

- Russell Goodenough, Client Managing Director, Fujitsu
- Nic Cary, Waysphere (former Head of Data Policy, Department for Transport)
- Steve Armitage, IT Futures Manager, Heathrow Airport
