Kapsch TrafficCom has formalized its integration into the Vitoria-Gasteiz Araba Mobility Lab Foundation, an entity dedicated to fostering innovation in urban mobility and logistics in the Basque Country. This foundation aims to become a benchmark in the development of solutions that optimize transportation systems and strengthen the local economy by bringing together various public institutions, companies, research centers, and universities.
Juan Zamakona, General Director of Kapsch for Spain and Portugal, expressed his satisfaction with joining this initiative: “We are very proud to be part of this foundation. Over the years, we have established strong partnerships in Vitoria-Gasteiz, and this is a great opportunity to deepen our support for the historical territory of Álava, making travel smoother, safer, and more efficient for everyone.”
The Mobility Lab, located in the center of Álava, benefits from the city’s infrastructure and its commitment to sustainability. Vitoria-Gasteiz was recognized as a European Green Capital in 2012 and has actively participated in the European Union’s “Climate-Neutral and Smart Cities” program.
Kapsch TrafficCom has been involved in various projects in the city, including a pilot bus priority system that uses connected vehicle technology aimed at improving public transport flow and reducing delays. Zamakona emphasized that “mobility is a key factor for the growth of this region,” highlighting the importance of the local industry, particularly in the automotive and technology sectors.
Kapsch’s inclusion, alongside Michelin, in the board of the Foundation represents a joint effort to stimulate dialogue and collaboration between sectors. Both companies are pioneers in the private sector, setting an important precedent for advancing mobility initiatives.
Kapsch TrafficCom is an international provider of sustainable transportation solutions, with a presence in over 50 countries and more than 3,000 employees. The company, which is listed on the Vienna Stock Exchange, encompasses a comprehensive approach that ranges from the design to the operation of traffic management systems, contributing to more efficient and congestion-free transportation.
