Just a few days after representatives of the European railway sector return from the exhibition in Berlin, the international railway conference IRFC 2022 will be held in Prague from October 5-7 under the title Creating the Railway of a New Generation Together. Since the Czech Republic currently presides over the EU Council, the seventh edition of the conference has been included in the official calendar of accompanying events of the Czech Presidency, and the conference is under the patronage of the Minister for European Affairs of the Czech Republic, doc. PhDr. Mikuláš Bek, Ph.D.
The IRFC 2022 conference traditionally connects European manufacturers, freight carriers, intermodal operators, and forwarders, who will present their services and best practice examples in rail freight transport and logistics. In the context of the EU Green Deal, this year’s speakers will consider how to make European railways faster, safer, and more competitive.
Cargo Wagon’s freight wagons participate in transport throughout the Central and Eastern European region every day. Our company’s customers include the largest rail carriers and forwarders in the region. Our long-term goal is to provide solutions today that make their transport faster, safer, and more reliable. The EU Green Deal is a significant stimulus for passenger and freight rail transport in Europe and opens opportunities for innovation and dynamic sector development in the near future. Cargo Wagon wants to actively participate in this development.
„We expect that in the next ten years, the freight rail transport market in Europe will grow very dynamically, and this growth will lead to a significant renewal of the wagon fleet. We are pleased to support the meeting of representatives of railway companies from across Europe and participate in the debate on the directions that the railway of tomorrow should take to better meet the demands of its customers, the goals of politicians, and the expectations of the public,“ says Pavel Holomek, Chairman of the Board of Cargo Wagon.
Cargo Wagon is sponsoring the lunch on the first day of the conference. We would be happy to meet you at the conference, and we wish all participants and guests a lively and inspiring debate. The full program of the IRFC 2022 conference can be found here.
