Why Attend?

The rail operators and infrastructure managers of the Alpine region are leading a new era of rail transformation, driven by the undeniable link between modern railways and economic growth. Recognizing the need for integrated, inclusive, and environmentally sustainable mobility, Alpine countries are committing to historic levels of rail investment:

• Deutsche Bahn (German Railways): €86 billion
• ÖBB (Austrian Federal Railways): €21 billion
• RFI (Italian Railway Network): €94 billion
• SNCF (French National Railways): €46 billion
• SBB (Swiss Federal Railways): €22 billion

ÖBB CEO Andreas Matthä encapsulated this ambition:

In a challenging economic environment, we managed to secure financing for railway infrastructure projects. This means that ÖBB is not only a reliable mobility provider which can meet increasing demand through consistent expansion, but also a stable partner to the economy.

This commitment reflects a growing recognition that rail must rise to meet evolving customer demands for seamless, door-to-door mobility solutions. Passengers and freight operators now expect rail services to provide ease of booking and payment, real-time updates and seamless intermodal connectivity.

While expectations grow, the rail sector faces rising operational costs and competitive pressure from more cost-effective transport modes. Governments across the Alpine region have acknowledged that transformative investments are the only way to increase efficiency and sustainability, expand rail freight capacity by 45% over the next 25 years, and to support a 50% rise in passenger demand.

For organisations looking to expand in the Alpine rail market, now is the time. This conference offers an exclusive platform to not only engage directly with Infrastructure Managers and Rail Operators driving these investments, but to ensure your solutions are recognised as pivotal to this unprecedented investment era.
