From Innovation to Impact: Sustainable, Intelligent, and Inclusive Mobility
mobil.TUM 2026 is an international scientific conference on mobility and transport, scheduled for 16 to 18 November 2026 in Singapore.
Co-organised by TUM Asia and Nanyang Technological University (NTU), the conference will focus on the theme “From Innovation to Impact: Sustainable, Intelligent, and Inclusive Mobility” exploring in sustainable, intelligent, and inclusive transport solutions emerge at the intersection of technology, infrastructure, policy, and human behaviour.
This conference offers a unique platform for keynote speakers from diverse research backgrounds to stimulate discussions through presentations, posters, and interactive networking sessions. The Asian context provides an opportunity to draw inspiration from the latest innovations and explore new directions for shaping sustainable future cities.
We welcome contributions from diverse backgrounds, disciplines, regions, and cultures. Proposals are invited for lectern and poster presentations, providing opportunities to discuss research ideas and works in progress.
