Mobility XX

November 10, 2020 | 11:00–12:00 am ET

Transportation is woven through every facet of society, yet:
– Women pay more for transportation than men as they balance work, home, family and travel
-Women’s safety concerns shrink their transportation choices
-Women’s economic opportunities are reduced because of inequities in transportation

Join us for this 2 part series to discuss how we should address the fact that women make up a staggering 15% of the transportation industry, and even less in the CEO/ leadership positions? How has COVID-19 impacted women’s standing in the transportation industry, and how has it impacted women travelers?

In Part 1 of the Mobility XX Webinar – Why Equality Can’t Wait, we will hear from McKinsey & Company on trends and the latest research on Women in the Workplace, specifically in the transportation industry- including the impacts of COVID-19 on women.

Let’s Transform the Future Together.

Technology evolves faster than we can imagine the future. Rapidly evolving transportation innovations are being developed and deployed that promise to entirely reshape the way our transportation network operates, facilitating vast improvements to transportation safety and overall mobility. The promise of these innovations is apparent, but the deployment and application of these technologies is not without challenges. While technology disrupts the transportation ecosystem with new innovations and ideas, government, communities, private companies, and researchers must race to catch up to and contend with ideas never thought possible. How do we accelerate change and safely embrace new technology while promoting collaboration across industry to advance shared societal goals? Through nonprofits like the Intelligent Transportation Society of America (ITS America).

ITS America and its members have been at the center of these innovations, advocating for transformational technology to save lives, promote sustainability, and improve access to mobility.

Join us.
