The event also saw robust discussions around building smart and intelligent solutions to keep cities moving, with innovations such as environmental monitoring systems, energy management and connected devices, as well as fleet management, e-mobility, and intermodal transportation solutions.
 
Dr.Omkar Rai, DG, STPI on the occasion said ‘Start-ups are playing a key role in bringing innovation faster and cheaper into the market to address the needs of today and future. In order to leverage this, STPI is strongly promoting start-ups and incubation centres to support development of disruptive technology products and solutions.The traditional industry has been challenged with the pace of technological developments and evolving business models. Electrification of vehicles, self-driven cars, advancements of sensor, smart energy  and environment monitoring architecture, artificial Intelligence, mobility business models, and machine learning are not only disrupting the conventional ecosystem, but is slowly and surely making it obsolete.”
