The Hyperloop took centre stage at the 2017 Future of Transportation World Conference Technology Forum, which was held last July in Cologne, Germany. The conference was attended by José María Berdoy, manager of Ineco’s CNES-ATM Systems Area. Autonomous vehicles, their safety and legal and technical aspects, were some of the most discussed topics along with the environmental sustainability of the future. More information on this transport system is available in our new section In Closing, on page 50 of this issue.

The company has participated, for another year, in the Passenger Terminal Expo 2016 fair, which was held in Cologne from 15 to 17 March. José Manuel Anguita, Business Development director; José Ángel Higueras, National Aviation and AMEA director; and Esther Barahona, Infrastructure Planning and Development Section technical manager, represented Ineco at this international conference in which the company had a corporate stand. This year, around 3,500 professionals and over 220 companies from the aeronautical sector from 85 countries came together.

Moreover, World ATM Congress held its fourth edition in Madrid from 8 to 10 March. Ana Pastor, minister of Public Works, accompanied by Jeff Poole, general director of CANSO, opened the fair. The minister visited, along with Julio Gómez-Pomar, secretary of State for Infrastructure, Transport and Housing, and Carmen Librero, general secretary for Transport, the joint stand of the Public Works Group (Ineco, ENAIRE and SENASA).
