APTAtech explores how the public can use innovative technologies to better navigate transit including emerging technologies in Fare Payment, Connected and Autonomous Vehicles, Cybersecurity, Artificial Intelligence, Mobility-as-a-Service, the Internet of Things (IoT), and Big Data.

This virtual event will provide a focused perspective at the nexus of mobility and technology, and address the ways in which technology is prompting a monumental paradigm shift for transit–impacting everything associated with the rider experience, users expectations of convenience and data availability, fare collection and revenue management, route optimization, transit workforce needs, and more. The APTAtech Conference will also address newly emerging challenges related to COVID-19 and help the transit industry consider how it might leverage opportunities in innovation to surmount this unprecedented challenge and to maximize the future of the public transportation industry in response and recovery.

Who should attend: This conference provides a forum for transit agencies of all sizes and fare collection methods to discuss new technologies, fare collection projects and issues by sharing experiences and best practices with their peers. ​​​
