Seville in Spain has been named as the 'preferred choice' candidate to host the ITS European Congress in 2025.

Several cities expressed an interest, and organiser Ertico - ITS Europe's supervisory board voted for Seville on the recommendation of the European Selection Committee, which reviewed all of the final submissions.

"The final negotiation process will start, and if successful, it will lead to the final selection [of Seville]," says Ertico in a statement.

Next year, Ertico is organising the 30th ITS World Congress in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, from 16-20 September 2024 - which means there is no ITS European Congress in 2024.

ITS World Congresses are organised on a rolling basis by Ertico, ITS America and ITS Asia-Pacific, depending in which region they take place.

The sea is not our natural habitat and we were definitely not designed to fly unaided. Nevertheless, humankind has evolved a method of living during the past century that is dependent on transporting its members over very long distances during relatively short per
