A LOOK AT THE 2019 EDITION
WHAT THEY SAY ABOUT IT
Emmanuelle FABRE, Head of Communication, Electric Mobility Programme - Enedis
“By taking part in Autonomy’s 2019 edition, Enedis wanted to be visible as a key partner in the development of electric mobility among the players in this ecosystem. This major event was a great opportunity for Enedis to communicate this message in our speaking opportunities and to develop contacts and meetings.”
Estelle DEVILLER, Marketing Director - Kisio
“Kisio is happily renewing our participation in the 2020 edition of Autonomy, as the 2019 edition gave us many new, high quality international contacts and the discovery of some interesting mobility innovations. We improved our visibility in the market with our participation in the Industry Talks, and the Grande Halle de la Villette is a magical venue!”
Adam SIMKIN, VP Business Development - Autofleet
"Autonomy brought together a highly relevant and focused audience of mobility professionals, from all perspectives: operators, aggregators, cities, fleet owners, tech suppliers, etc. It was a great format for us to meet the right people and partners and have real and practical conversations on how and when we can start working together."
François BARSACQ, Founder & President - EasyLi Batteries
“ The 2019 edition of Autonomy, by amplifying its international B2B dimension, has enabled us to forge business relationships with manufacturers and managers of self-service electric vehicle fleets looking for customized lithium ion batteries and innovative on-board energy systems designed and manufactured in France. The event’s dense community has been a great investment for easyLi Batteries, and we will surely be back for the 2020 edition.”
Damien PICHEREAU - LREM Deputy for the 1st District of Sarthe (France) and Chairman of the land vehicles study group of the National Assembly
“As usual, I was able to visit Autonomy 2019 with the National Assembly’s land vehicles study group. I am always impressed with the technological competitiveness of French companies and startups ready to accompany mobility in the economy and environmental revolution!”
Olga KORCHAGINA, Marketing manager - EbikeLabs
"Autonomy is the place to be if you're involved in urban mobility. The event gathers international innovators who have the power, creativity, and knowledge to make the future of mobility happen. I'm looking forward to the next 2020 event! I'm positive it will be resourceful, engaging, inspiring and fun. I've already got my tickets! And you?"
Antoine LAPORTE WEYWADA, Director of Development - Geovelo
“Autonomy was an occasion for us to benefit from excellent visibility amongst important actors in the sector. Our stand at the exhibition gave us the opportunity to meet and exchange with many potential partners and decision makers who are interested in helping us accelerate our growth. Everything was done, both before and during the show, to ensure that our participation was a success!”
Marc BORGIOLI, Founder - Dynamo-Location
“As our first experience participating at Autonomy 2019, we were pleasantly surprised with the quality of the organisation and exchanges we had with the many professionals who came during these two days. We will absolutely be back for Autonomy 2020!”
Richard DELLA MUSSIA - Adjoint Mayor in charge of Sustainable Development and Transport, Chennevières-sur-Marne
“The Transport Commission of the Association of Mayors of Île-de-France participated at Autonomy with the themed discussion ‘Which tools to regulate the free-floating options in one’s municipality?’ Competitive tendering and the objectives of specifications including bike parks were on the agenda of this meeting, followed by a guided tour of the exhibition. Following this, I selected one of the exhibitors, Zoov, to be a partner, a completely private startup that seems to stand out from the others.”
Auriane LESTIENNE, Communication - Pink Mobility
“Having been present at Autonomy for the past 3 years, we have seen the exhibition grow, with an improved structure and more expansion. With a vast hall presenting all different kinds of mobility solutions, Autonomy has rapidly become, in just a few years, the major meeting place for professionals and big players in the electric mobility field. By refocusing on two 100% professional days, Autonomy has increased its qualified visits and has allowed us, as exhibitors, to establish long-lasting and wide-ranging commercial partnerships. Finally, the indoor test tracks, spacious despite everything, was THE novelty of 2019: an ideal and indispensable space to convince those interested, as electric mobility is first of all a lived experience.”
Tony GREAUX, Manager of Mobility Services - Vedecom
“We were very happy with this experience. In terms of contacts and interest generated, it is even beyond what we had hoped to achieve as our project is still in its infancy.”
Olivier JOUX, CEO - Cyclodebout
“At Cyclodebout, we have greatly appreciated the evolution of Autonomy between the 2018 and 2019 editions. We were pleased with the improvement of the stand layout and test track and the organizational staff was very present and attentive. The networking cocktail event was also very pleasant and of high quality. The networking and appointment scheduling tool and the new 2-day B2B format were well-suited to our needs.”
Kaloyan KARAMITOV - Urban Planner for the City of Sofia, Bulgaria
“Autonomy and the Urban Mobility Summit is a key event for mobility innovation. It connects the leaders in the transportation and related industries with the companies that are in the beginning of their journey. Autonomy is a platform for cities to discover possible solutions for their specific context and also to share their current and emerging mobility challenges which could drive innovation in companies looking for new solutions. There is a broad variety of examples of future technologies, transportation modelling software, analyses methodologies and good practices of mobility management processes that can be found at Autonomy, in addition to helpful talks and discussions regarding policies, regulations, and best practices.”
Stanislas HAINEAUX, Sales Manager - Velco
“Much more focused on B2B and B2G than previous editions, Autonomy 2019 was the occasion to note that mobility is now, more than ever, at the heart of all major strategic reflections of professionals (companies, associations, etc.) who are looking for answers to our current technological, economic, and ecological challenges. Thanks to its positioning and offer of innovative connected mobility solutions, VELCO was able to meet, enlighten, and forge partnerships with many quality players in the public and private sector.”
Zuzana MOJZISKOVA - Cyclers
"Regarding the Autonomy 2019, we really enjoyed our stay and presentation there. We think the event has a good vibe and just enough traffic in the meaning of people and organizations visiting the trade fair."
Mohamed AIT EL HADJ, CEO - Road-Light
“Despite our last-minute registration at Autonomy 2019, Road Light was very well accompanied by the organisational team to make the necessary happen in order to be present at the event. Our stand was ideally placed in close proximity to the test tracks.”
Dr TSU-JUI CHENG - Program Manager and Global Coordinator Sustainable Mobility, ICLEI - On behalf of ICLEI and their EcoMobility Alliance member cities:
“Autonomy gives mobility solution providers, policy makers and civil society a great platform for open discussions on mobility issues we are facing in cities we live in. Through the summit, industry talks and face-to-face conversations, new ideas can be brainstormed and tested. Autonomy also gives the mobility community a wonderful opportunity to share knowledge and speed up the innovation for the future of mobility.”
Marion PENELA, Marketing - Cykleo
“Cykleo has been a participant at Autonomy since its very first edition. The event has been very conducive to creating exchanges with new audiences for our business such as real estate professionals and other companies wishing to offer cycles to their employees. We have benefitted from great placement within La Grande Halle de la Villette, which has given us great visibility for our business each year.”
Forum Métropolitain du Grand Paris
“As participants of Autonomy 2019, the international consultation on the future routes of greater Paris that the Forum métropolitain du Grand Paris organized had a strong visibility amongst the mobility professionals at the event. The exhibition stand gave us the ability to share widely the work and proposals on the future of the Paris Region road network presented by the team of architects. The very large number of visitors over these two days showed the real interest companies have in this approach to transforming the expressways and motorways, a desire shared by public authorities and which offers a glimpse into future opportunities. This success was also evident during our two Industry Talk conferences on the Mobility as a Service revolution and on car-sharing, developed with the organizers.”
Olivier BORDELANNE - Demeter
“For Demeter, a European leader in private equity for the energy and environmental transition, new mobility is an integral part of our investment strategy. Attending Autonomy is one of the most important events of the year, allowing us to meet the founders of innovative companies from all over the world and to shed light on future trends in this sector.”
