The organisation says will bring together “leading minds in mobility to assess the collective impact of MaaS on our transport ecosystems, and identify the policy, planning, funding, data, technology and deployment challenges we must solve”.

MaaS America says this will help create the MaaS framework “best able to improve access and deliver share mobility services we are willing to pay for”.  

Tim McGuckin, director of MaaS America, says: “MaaS is not a future concept. It is the culmination of societal, business, technology, consumer and government trends happening now, combined with the acute need to improve how we provide and consume mobility. But for MaaS to truly work for people, public agencies and private enterprise, solutions must be informed by all perspectives.”
