‘Hypermotion brings together innovative minds and ideas to transform the mobility and logistics industry. From integrated logistics concepts to disruptive ideas and digital networks, Hypermotion allows us to work with industry experts to build a world of smarter trade and more intelligent logistics.’
‘New mobility is all about the flexibility of being able to use a suitable solution at any time and in any place.’
‘Time and again, we have seen that networked thinking is essential. The energy transition can only be successful if it is accompanied by a mobility transition.’
‘Hypermotion offers hyper-communication for everything that is being sought: personnel, ideas, investors and sponsors.’
‘There is no other event that offers such a large number of experts, users, start-ups and associations the chance to stay abreast of the latest technology and industry findings in such a versatile format.’
‘With Hypermotion we have created the first platform for digital transformation that unites every mode of transport. It is our goal to drive networking within the industry, in order to pave the way for new and integrated solutions for tomorrow’s mobility.’
‘The intransparent, fragmented logistics market needs to become more open. Particularly in the supply chain. Every new platform increases the pressure on logisticians.’
The concept
The boundaries between logistics, mobility, infrastructure and transport are falling. New, networked, integrated and inter-modal systems are being created. To reflect these changes and to discuss their impact on the economy and society, Messe Frankfurt launches the Hypermotion. This event create will be the first independent platform with digital transformation in the mobility and transport sector as the superordinate theme.
People perceive mobility as an important indication of personal freedom. Logistics create growth and prosperity both for business and society. In times of the digitalisation and decarbonisation, logistics and mobility must be available at all times and must be reliable.
And the transport system of the future will need to be 'intelligent' – that means, amongst other things, networked, integrated, digital, secure, multi-modal and affordable. To achieve this, traditional boundaries separating systems that have hitherto existed, between logistics, mobility (i.e. personal and public transport), infrastructure and freight handling, will need to be overcome. Communities and groups that have, up to now, focussed on different modes of transport and sectors in separate, independent events and trade fairs will need to come together and, in part, also face modernisation and revitalisation.
The key point of approach for the 'Hypermotion' is, therefore, via the already recognised concept of intelligent transport systems (ITS) which can be made future proof by looking at it from the point of view of digitalisation, and should be developed further. Thus,
Hypermotion will be the first independent platform for the digital transformation of transport, mobility and logistics.
The thematic areas
The seven thematic areas - Connectivity (basically ITS as we know it to date), Monitoring & Transparency, Data Analytics & Security, Hypermodality, Sustainability, Digital & Urban Logistics and Smart & digital Regions – are all interlinked and encompass the core elements of the transport systems of both today and tomorrow:
Infrastructure (different types of transport, including planning, financing)
Equipment (vehicles, including development and financing)
Services & applications (including research and start-ups)
Product groups
Hypermodality = intermodal + multimodal + digital
The seven related subjects of connectivity, monitoring & transparency, data analytics & security, hyper-modality, sustainability, digital & urban logistics and smart & digital regions link the core elements of the current and future mobility system:
