Mobility Live ME<\/a> 2025<\/strong>. This multifaceted event is structured around four B2B verticals\u2014rail, EVs, smart mobility, and solar & storage\u2014bringing together operators, public actors, and major global suppliers, from Chinese \ud83c\udde8\ud83c\uddf3 firms to leading European railway players, notably from France and Italy.<\/strong>

Beyond the railway sector, #ITS<\/a> companies specialising in traffic and fleet management stood out, including players like Valtech Mobility GmbH<\/a> (Germany \ud83c\udde9\ud83c\uddea), a key actor in software-defined vehicle and fleet solutions, as Silver Sponsor, underlining the growing role of software-led orchestration #mobility<\/a> systems.

#Dubai<\/a> is clearly progressing: robotaxi pilots (Cruise, Baidu, WeRide, and Ponyai)*, AI-based traffic control, and electric buses are advancing steadily. Despite strong growth, BEVs \u26a1\ufe0f accounted for just 6% of new car sales in the #UAE<\/a> in 2024\u2014still well behind Europe \ud83c\uddea\ud83c\uddfa (14%) and China \ud83c\udde8\ud83c\uddf3 (45%).

As for air mobility, it remains at the conceptual and regulatory marketing stage\u2014no demonstrators are operational yet, and commercial deployment is still several steps away.

Ride-hailing is efficient and widespread\u2014vital in a context where extreme 45\u00b0C heat limits walkability, challenging the practical implementation of the \u201c15\u201320 minute city\u201d concept.

While the event is well-executed, many solutions remain aligned with what\u2019s seen in trade shows worldwide\u2014mature, structured, but rarely disruptive.

Early-stage startups are scarce, and few platforms tackle the governance layer of the #smartcity<\/a> : AI for urban decision-making, real-time data coordination, or operational use of urban #digitaltwins<\/a> are limited\u2014raising questions about how integrated and governable these future systems truly are.

A standout is Expo City Dubai<\/a>, now positioned as an urban lab for sustainability and smart technologies. Purpose-built, carbon-neutral, and sensor-rich\u2014it serves more as a strategic testing ground than a functioning city, but an asset worth watching.

In short: a typical professional salon with rather insightful side discussions\u2014and a city laying pragmatic, data-driven foundations for tomorrow\u2019s mobility systems.

* Under Road & Transport Authority – RTA<\/a> \ud83c\udde6\ud83c\uddea memoranda aiming for supervised trials with safety drivers in 2025 and fully driverless operations by 2026. #Dubai<\/a> has set a goal of having 25% of its daily transportation be smart and driverless by 2030. In contrast, #AbuDhabi<\/a> already offers a fully driverless robotaxi service: WeRide has been operating Level\u202f4 vehicles without safety drivers since mid-2025 on two islands.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
