conference:

Do you know how you’re going to achieve your competitive advantage in 2009? EuroRail 2009 has the answer!
The region’s leading rail event returns for 2009 with a revised format, refreshed content and a wider range of industry leading speakers.
Unlike your typical yearly gatherings of industry professionals, EuroRail 2009 is an event with purpose. With sustainability such a key issue in this day and age and with rail in prime position to capitalise on such a trend, EuroRail 2009 will take an in depth look at the effect that this trend will have across rail infrastructure, freight and passenger / high speed services. A sustainable transport policy is the goal and rail is the solution.

Some of the topics to be addressed include:
  • Industry outlook: investment, mergers and strategic partnerships – increasing rail’s market share
  • Sustainability and the environment: including the internalisation of external costs
  • High speed and passenger services: the potential for a future of cross-border high speed rail
  • Freight and co-modality: “road vs. rail” or “road and rail” – achieving sustainable co-modality
  • Infrastructure: developing international rail corridors and addressing the capacity challenge
  • Finance and investment: laying the foundations for attracting private investment 

You will gain insights into the areas of opportunity that your business can capitalise on. You will understand how to create an advantage over your competitors in 2009 and beyond!

Meet the key decision makers from the European rail industry

As usual we have an exceptional speaker line up, but this year we have broadened the scope to ensure that each and every major rail operator and infrastructure manager is represented. Our line up of 50+ speakers boasts more CEOs than you will find at any other senior level strategic rail event in Europe.

Hear from the CEOs of the following rail companies:

Infrabel, ProRail, SNCB, NS Reizigers, Stagecoach Rail, TGV Lyria, Thalys, MAV Start, NedRailways, Rail Cargo Austria, MAV Cargo, TX Logistik, Veolia Cargo Germany & ERS Railways

Board / Director level speakers from the following organisations are also confirmed:

Deutsche Bahn, SNCF, Transport for London, National Express, DSB, Eurostar, RAVE, NS Hispeed, Railteam, Keolis, EWS Railway, Eurotunnel & Europorte 2, DB Station & Service, ÖBB Infrastruktur Betrieb, TP Ferro & PKP PLK

Establish relationships with the industry’s key decision makers

“Great opportunity to network in a relaxed fashion with senior railway representatives."
Jane Pearce, Marketing Manager, Knorr-Bremse Rail Systems

EuroRail 2009 is of course the ideal place to share your experiences, remain up-to-date and make sure you know where the market is heading. However it is also renowned as the industry’s major networking event of the year. The new interactive format allows you to interact with the speakers and other delegates, and throughout the conference there are also the lengthy coffee and lunch breaks and of course our legendary Speed Networking session.

An end to the conference day does not mean an end to the networking. A drinks reception will be held after “Conference Day One,” and following on from this we will be hosting the annual EuroRail gala dinner.

EuroRail 2009 will bring your target market together in one place at one time

In addition to our speaker faculty consisting exclusively of director level executives, over 75% of the delegates that attend are director level or above. So if you are in involved in the European rail market then you cannot afford to miss this event. Last year’s event in Milan attracted over 200 attendees with over 50% of these coming from infrastructure managers and rail operators. This year, it’s going to be bigger, bolder and better in every way – so don’t delay, book your place today!
