About the Event
In a scenario of increased demand for metro rail infrastructure, Brazil is facing a critical moment to invest and expand its transportation infrastructure. In the light of this important stage, CKZ Events decided to Rail Tech & Business Summit. The event will address the most important subject areas that needs to be discussed and analyzed by specialists, government agents, industry professionals and technology experts in these dimensions: policy, strategies, investments, concession models and technology. Our aim is to generate over 3 days of discussion practical steps to leverage projects, policies, efficiencies and solutions to foster the METRO RAIL sector in Brazil.
First Day: CEOs of passengers and freight operators will present their business plans to the industry and will discuss their main challenges and investments. In a special speech, the Ministry of Industrial Development will present the plans and incentives of the new industrial policy for the metro rail sector – how this industry can become more competitive.
Second Day: The agenda will address freight sector issues, where agents and industry experts will discuss interoperability, integration systems, open access model and tax management for operators.
Third Day: The agenda will address passengers sector issues: new policies, investments, technologies and best practices.
