Singapore makes bid to host Intelligent Transport Systems World Congress 2019

The country needs six votes to win the bid.

The Land Transport Authority and the Intelligent Transportation Society Singapore today revealed that the country has put in a bid for the rights to host the 26th Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) World Congress 2019 in Singapore.

The ITS World Congress is an international event held annually since 1994. The host of the ITS World Congress rotates among three major geographical regions - America, Europe and Asia-Pacific, hence, it is held once every three years in the Asia-Pacific (AP) region.

It is a platform for government transport agencies, industry players and academic/research institutions to exchange information, share views, as well as to review and showcase the latest global ITS products, services, plans, technological achievements and upcoming trends. This conference typically attracts about 5,000 participants from all over the world.

Formal presentation of the bid proposal was held on 6 September 2014 at the 21st ITS World Congress in Detroit, USA, to the ITS Asia-Pacific Board of Directors comprising 11 countries including Singapore.

The other countries are Australia, China, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, New Zealand, Taiwan and Thailand. Each country is allowed one vote, and the winner will need to secure at least six votes to win the bid.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
