The International Transport Forum will take place on the 26-28 May in Leipzig, Germany. ITF is a global platform and meeting place at the highest level for transport, logistics and mobility.   Key figures from government and politics, business and industry, research and civil society will meet in Leipzig each year to debate a transport topic of worldwide strategic importance.

Transformed from the European Conference of Ministers of Transport, the International Transport Forum is an inter-governmental organisation within the OECD family.   Its members include all OECD countries, as well as many countries in Central and Eastern Europe, and India.   In addition, China and Brazil are being invited to participate in the Forum.   The involvement of more than 50 Ministers of Transport ensures direct links and strong relevance to policy making at both national and international levels.

The highlight of the International Transport Forum’s activities is the annual meeting in Leipzig, which has the ambition to become the “Transport Summit of the Year”.

The Forum will be focused on the theme “Transport and Innovation”.
