Charting the Future of Transportation in the Region
Greater Vancouver’s population is rapidly growing at a pace not seen in generations and our infrastructure and development is being stretched. As we prepare to welcome an additional one million residents in the next 25 years, it is clear that innovative collaborations between industry and government are required to adequately plan for the future of transportation in our region and ensure we can address challenges such as climate change, congestion and enhancing livability.
Against this backdrop, shared electric vehicles have emerged as key solutions to improve regional connectivity and achieve transportation objectives. Enter Lime, the world's largest electric vehicle company, which has achieved remarkable growth and is playing a crucial role in empowering communities with sustainable, cost-effective, and carbon-free transportation alternatives.
Join us on October 3rd for an intimate conversation about the future of the region’s transportation. In his keynote, Lime's CEO, Wayne Ting, will share insights into how the company became the global leader in micro-mobility. Following the keynote, Wayne Ting will be joined by industry leaders for a panel discussion to explore scalable, innovative, and environmentally friendly solutions that address the evolving needs of our rapidly changing region.
