Why Interchange

Fostering collaboration

Interchange is about shifting the conversation and fostering collaboration among a diverse group of infrastructure professionals who are collectively committed to creating integrated and intelligent transport systems that benefit society, the economy, and the environment.

Interchange breaks new ground. Yes it’s about decarbonising transport; yes it’s about seamless multi-modal journeys for people and freight; and yes it’s outcomes focused so that we know that our transport investments work for people, the economy and place.

But it’s not just buzzword bingo for the transport sector. Interchange is the only event that sets out to bring together major transport infrastructure clients, transport authorities and the infrastructure design, construction and asset management supply chains from all the major transport modes - road, rail, maritime and aviation…

We are about breaking down siloes and challenging the orthodoxy to ensure that we have a transport system that enables us to meet our, society’s and the planet’s needs as we transition to a net zero economy.

That’s why Interchange also invites the energy, property and telecoms sectors, together with the technology innovators and disrupters, to be inside the transport tent — all are key collaborators in how we plan, fund and deliver transport that works and is fit for future purpose.

Now in its second year, Interchange has already proven it can deliver on its lofty ambitions. As one delegate put it “This was the right conference at the right time”. You can see more testimonials here

It’s our ambition that Interchange becomes more than just an event - think of it as a dynamic community of infrastructure designers, builders, operators, placemakers, and technologists who are passionate about creating positive change.

And we’re delighted that the highly acclaimed STB Conference and TIP Live events are both running as part of Interchange 2024. We’d love you to be part of it too.
