The Czech Republic will host the 7th edition of the International Rail Transport Forum and Conference (IRFC 2022) in the next few days (5-7 October 2022), bringing together leading representatives of the European rail sector, the political scene, and academia. RAILTARGET is a media partner of the event, and you can look forward to a series of interviews and live coverage of the conference.
The patronage of the Czech Presidency of the Council of the EU allows OLTIS Group to organize an event of significant international dimension and to attract several leading personalities not only from the railway sector itself but also from the ranks of politicians and academia. In addition to the distinguished guests, a major benefit of IRFC 2022 will be the promotion of international and global cooperation, specifically East-West and Europe-Asia connections.
