Webfleet Solutions, one of the world’s leading telematics solutions providers and part of Bridgestone Mobility Solutions, presented its first global edition of the annual Webfleet Mobility Conference virtually recently.
Under the theme ‘Mobility 2032: Are you ready?’ industry experts from across the fleet and mobility landscape shared their insights and best practices to equip fleet decision-makers and business leaders with knowledge, inspiration and practical tools to design the fleet of tomorrow. 
To open the conference, Bridgestone Mobility Solutions Chief Executive Officer, Jan-Maarten de Vries, took a dynamic look at the rapidly changing world of mobility and the challenges fleets will need to overcome to thrive in this time of constant disruption. 

The following keynote speeches then shone a light on the evolving mobility landscape from different angles:
• Urban mobility in smart cities with Greg Lindsey: the future of urban mobility promises to be filled with scooters, stores and drones seemingly with a mind of their own. These technologies are already transforming the way we see, understand and get around cities. Greg Lindsay, an internationally known futurist and urbanist, took a trip through the smart city as it will look in 2032 and explained how to get ready to do business in it. 
• The truck of the future with Volta Trucks: from autonomous platooning to alternative fuels and everything in between, technology is changing the trucking sector. The team from Volta Trucks, a cutting-edge manufacturer, revealed their innovative new electric commercial vehicles and explained how they differ radically from the traditional urban delivery vehicle. 
• Partnerships: The key that can unlock the full potential of mobility solutions: experts from Mercedes-Benz Connectivity Services, project44 and EasyPark discussed how data interconnectivity and integrations between Software-as-a-Service mobility providers will unlock the true, full potential of mobility across the coming decade and what it means for commercial fleets and suppliers.

The one-day virtual conference was free of charge and held simultaneously in 21 countries globally.Alongside the international presentations, local experts tackled various mobility themes in more than 50 sessions including roundtable discussions, interviews and best-practice presentations.
The subject matter ranged from adding electric vehicles to commercial fleets to sustainable data solutions and new product integrations as well as country-specific advice on how to deal with existing and future legal requirements.
