10-14 October 2016 | MELBOURNE AUSTRALIA

Overview

 

The Call for Technical Tours has been developed by the 23rd ITS World Congress Technical Tours Committee and comprises the following broad process:

  • Part A - Storyboard Application (Complete first and submit to 23rd ITS World Congress Technical Tours Committee)
  • Part B - Detailed Submission Form (Only complete after acceptance of the by 23rd ITS World Congress Technical Tours Committee)
  • Agreement Execution (Not included herewith - to be provided post Storyboard Application)

The 23rd ITS World Congress in Melbourne will take place in and around the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre.

The purpose of the 23rd ITS World Congress Technical Tours Committee is to ascertain whether your organisation is interested to propose a technical tour and to collect a general description of what your organisation may be considering conceptually. In order to facilitate planning, the 23rd ITS World Congress Technical Tours Committee needs to better understand the nature of the intended tours and ascertain basic logistical requirements.

It is anticipated that the nominated organisations will host the proposed technical tour(s) at their facilities and arrange the site visits – where applicable. Further details will be provided in the Detailed Submission Form.

Submission of this Storyboard Application will serve as your organisation’s intent to participate. At this time, information submitted will be considered your best summation at a possible technical tour. Please provide as much information as possible. It is understood that this submission is subject to change. A Detailed Submission Form and Agreement Execution process will occur at a later date. 

Submission of this Storyboard Application will allow your organisation earlier access to the planning process (To include teleconferences, face-to-face meetings, and information dissemination).

Whilst it is not mandatory to propose a technical tour which follows the predefined themes, the 23rd ITS World Congress Technical Tours Committee has decided to propose the same themes as the 23rd ITS World Congress. The reason of this is essentially to create a synergy between the different congress elements which are the technical program, exhibition, demonstrations, technical tours and ancillary events.

These themes are only suggestions to help you in your choice and description of the technical tour(s) you want to propose. Your technical tour does not have to fit into these themes so feel free to propose them if they don’t fit in a predefined topic.
