/ About this event

Autonomous Vehicles and Public Transit: Bridging the Gap for Sustainable Urban Mobility.

How can autonomous vehicles strengthen—not compete with—public transit? This exclusive panel brings together senior executives and mobility leaders from Sweden and the United States to explore how robotaxis, autonomous shuttles, and data-driven services can connect with buses, trams, and rail.

Drawing on perspectives from Sweden’s integrated public transit system and the U.S.’s fast-moving autonomous vehicle ecosystem, the conversation will cover real-world deployments, safety, regulation, business models, infrastructure, and public trust.

Agenda: - Welcome by Swedish Consulate General - Keynote presentation by Billy Riggs, University of SF - Panel discussion with -- Emily Warren, CalSTA -- Per Nyrenius, Västtrafik (Swedish PTA) -- Suany Chough, SF County Transportation Authority -- Hans Nordin, Swedish Transport Agency -- Sven Beiker, Silicon Valley Mobility - Networking with snacks & drinks

This event is a part of #SFTechWeek—a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring together the tech ecosystem. Learn more at www.tech-week.com
