With a lively exhibition hall and packed conference agenda across the two days, we were excited to see familiar faces and meet new ones.

Highlights included a discussion of how to balance the benefits of transit data (for example, in providing relevant information to the passenger about their journey) with the challenges of protecting personal information and safeguarding data privacy.
We also enjoyed getting to meet visitors at the Vix juice bar and our photo contest with the Harlequins Women’s Rugby players!
