On last Friday, October 28, Moventia participated as a speaker at Hub b30’s Innovation Brunch. It was in the framework of the conference of the Mobilitat intel·ligent als Polígons de l’Activitat Econòmica (PAE), organized by the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB) and the Unió de Polígons Industrials de Catalunya (UPIC).

Elena Aguarta, Director of Innovation Services for Mobility and Regulatory Affairs of Moventia, representing the company expert in sustainable mobility, spoke about the new models of intelligent mobility that are adapted today to industrial polygons. The talk, which had as its objective the search for a mobility model adapted to the technological revolution, its organizational changes and the climate emergency within the polygons, also had the participation of Rosa Maria Sebastian Perez, Vice-Rector of Innovation, Transfer and Entrepreneurship of the UAB; Silvia Solanellas, Moderator of the session and director of the Unió de Polígons Industrials de Catalunya (UPIC); Alejandro Valdovinos, Business Unit Director of Circontrol; Gerard Martret, CEO of Shotl and Vicente Atienza, Innovation Project Manager at the Barcelona Cambra de Comerç.

During the presentation, and with the intention of achieving a new business organization, with a strong commitment to digitization, the Moventia spokeswoman gave as an example some of the services that the company carries out in the Can Sant Joan Polygon, in Sant Cugat del Vallès. He highlighted the city bus and the shuttle bus, which transports passengers from the Ferrocarrils de la Generalitat de Catalunya station to the industrial area. And a shared coach on demand.

The Innovation Brunch came to the conclusion of the multiple benefits of having a mobility plan for the Polygon itself coordinated with that of the companies. The importance of it being appropriate and adapted to the existing needs of the companies and their workers was emphasized, both in the field of labor conciliation, as well as that of security in itinere and that of optimization and increase in production in labor activity.

Reference was also made to the economic savings and the reduction in atmospheric and acoustic pollution that results from the reduction in traffic intensity thanks to the public transport service and the optimization of energy consumption in the companies of the polygons.
