Being part of industry associations is more than just a membership…

…it’s how we influence our industry! By joining forces with our peers, we can make a difference and shape the outcomes of decisions and proposals.

At the Verband der Bahnindustrie in Deutschland (VDB) e.V. (German Railway Industry Association) event, held in Berlin just before InnoTrans, we experienced first-hand how associations create platforms that bring peers together and why these connections are essential.

Besides the enjoyable event, here are our key takeaways:

• Conversations with sustainability experts highlighted potential partnerships in circular economy initiatives in Germany, promising to align our efforts with sustainable practices.
• Insights from DAC Europe specialists shed light on the complex journey towards digitalising rail freight transport, sparking discussions on overcoming current challenges.

These experiences remind us why we are committed to being active members: to network, engage with thought leaders, and stay ahead in driving meaningful change.

We are looking forward to the next steps. Let’s connect and shape the mobility of tomorrow together
