Under the theme Enhancing liveable cities and communities, 858 ITS Australia has launched the 23rd 6456 ITS World Congress, to be held in Melbourne, Australia from 10-14 October 2016. Comprehensive information is already available, including the exhibition opportunities prospectus, call for demonstrations application booklet and partnership opportunities prospectus.

Exhibitors are invited to participate in the exhibition, which has 16,500 sqm of space reserved in the pillarless exhibition centre. Exhibitors who wish to mount demonstrations can apply for space mobile or static space inside, outside or on a test track. Applications for demonstrations will follow a multi-phase process beginning with a concept storyboard. Following short listing, applications progress to a detailed submission and finally an acceptance agreement timed for announcement at the 2015 World Congress at Bordeaux.

“The exhibition is a major part of the World Congress. In Melbourne the exhibition centre is literally next door to the Melbourne Convention Centre. Together, these adjacent buildings will be home to the 23rd ITS World Congress on the scenic Yarra River,” said ITS Australia chief executive officer Susan Harris. 

“As an exhibitor, you will meet serious prospects and can make sales at the World Congress exhibition. Virtually everyone who attends the World Congress also visits the exhibition. This creates a buzz in the pavilion because it is a one stop shop to see and learn about the latest ITS technologies.

“Major global players book early to get prime exhibition hall positions. Bookings are on a strict ‘first come, first served’ basis, so we encourage smaller organisations – particularly new businesses – to complete the exhibition prospectus early to ensure their place in Melbourne in 2016,” she said.

“Another important way of meeting your customers face to face at the 2016 World Congress is through our partnership program. We are flexible about partnering with enthusiastic organisations and want you to bring your creative ideas to the 2016 World Congress in Melbourne,” said Harris.

Discussing how ITS technologies can help solve gridlock, he described some of the projects which fall under the Australian government’s $100bn programme of transport infrastructure expenditure – suc
