Summaries

Summary Sentence: The GACC South is organizing a roadshow on the topic of "Driving into a Sustainable Future" in Houston, TX and Atlanta, GA.

Full Summary: No summary paragraph submitted.

Sustainable Mobility becomes increasingly important on both sides of the Atlantic. Cities and communities need to develop and implement future mobility masterplans that will help to move people and products quickly and efficiently via air, road, railway and sea to global markets. The question remains on how to apply smart sustainability solutions? To find solutions, the GACC South is organizing a roadshow on the topic of "Driving into a Sustainable Future" in Houston, TX and Atlanta, GA.

The program is organized by the German American Chamber of Commerce of the Southern US (GACC South) and is financially supported by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy through the European Recovery Program (ERP; also known as the Marshall Plan).

The roadshow attendees will also have the chance to sign up for a delegation trip to Germany in November 2017. US-participants will have ample opportunity to visit and speak with key players in the German mobility sector. Please find more information here.
