SIDT 2026 - Scientific Seminar
Transport and Sustainable Mobility
Beyond the Next Generation EU Funding Program
Gaeta (LT) - Italy - 8-10 June 2026
The Next Generation EU funding programme has promoted sustainability in all economic sectors in European countries. Sustainable mobility is one of the main areas that has received substantial funding, both in research and industry. It is essential that this heritage of investment and research is not lost. In this context, the SIDT 2026 scientific seminar aims to provide transport researchers with an opportunity to discuss scientific findings, both to present results and to examine prospects for sector development.
SIDT 2026 will be held in Gaeta (LT) at the Summit Hotel from 8 to 10 June 2026. SIDT members and researchers in the sector are invited to participate in order to exchange ideas and knowledge and to outline together the future steps in the field of research.
