#UNIFEGA2023 #RailIndustry
The future of #rail is looking bright when these sharp & young technical minds are all excited to start a career in our sector. Drive #innovation for sustainable #transport with us! Glad to welcome you @SiemensMobility and hopefully our paths cross again.
Let's go! @AnnaDeparnay is clearly passionate about clean mobility. We visited #Siemens hydrogren & battery trains, and even an electrified truck. Thank you Anna for being an important voice for #rail in Brussels.
Digitalisation, ticketing, interoperability and technical specifications - there was much to discuss with @EUAmbSchmidt. Thank you for your visit & challenging questions @SiemensMobility!
😍 Premiere of the interior of the new couchette car of our Viaggio #nightjet for @unsereOEBB! Modern design, greater comfort, increased privacy. One particular highlight is the innovative mini cabins with more private space to retreat. 🛌🚄

"Its not that we can't afford trains, its that we cannot afford not to do trains", @SiemensMobility’s @michaelmppeter points out at #UNIFEGA2022's roundtable on SERA to illustrate that consequential costs of not investing in next generation transport will be expensive.
Speaking to a key enabler for long term competitiveness and global leadership for the #railsupply#industry at #UNIFEGA2022, @SiemensMobility's Sabine Schneider points to skills as essential to remaining at the head of the pack.
"Rail must modernise through digitalisation and innovation" said EU Transport Commissioner @AdinaValean at today’s @railsummit and it sums up what lies ahead of us to ensure that rail will remain the backbone of urban transport & become the leading interurban mode of transport💪
🚆Rail is already the most carbon-efficient means of transport , creating <0.4% of Transport's #emissions despite carring ~18% of inland freight and ~8% of passengers in 🇪🇺
Mark-Robert Sontag explains at our #EUYearofRail digital event how #MFF spending is about our principles.
Siemens Mobility to provide #Egypt with high-speed and regional trains, locomotives, rail infrastructure, system integration and other services + 15 years of service. MoU comprises a rail system with a network of around 1000km – first being a 460km project valued around 3bn$.
1st high-speed #rail system for Egypt is in focus of a Memorandum of Understanding, signed by our CEO @michaelmppeter! A 460 km state-of-the-art #highspeed system will connect the Mediterranean to the Red Sea & foster economic growth. https://t.co/e4S2Q6vDal #passengerexperience

Some non-European companies bidding for #procurement contracts have been benefiting from government #subsidies — and we cannot permit this distortion of the #InternalMarket to continue.
