October 21, 2022This year, CIT UPC, the UPC BarcelonaTech Technology Centre, is once again part of the Ambassador programme of the International Mobility Congress 2022 (IMC22). For the second year running, this will be held at the Meliá Sitges hotel on 25 and 26 October.
The International Mobility Congress (IMC22) will be held on 25 and 26 October under the theme 'Drive to innovation'. It will be a professional meeting point to understand the new public, local mobility with applied solutions and to analyse best practices worldwide.
The second edition of the international mobility congress will last two days and will feature a total of nine sessions with conferences and round table discussions. The sessions' official programme will revolve around two main topics: digitalisation and safe, inclusive and sustainable mobility.
IMC22 is organised by the Associació de Municipis per la Mobilitat i el Transport Urbà (AMTU), the Autoritat del Transport Metropolità (ATM) of the Barcelona area, the Generalitat de Catalunya, the Diputació de Barcelona, the Associació de Municipis de Catalunya (ACM) and Sitges Town Council, with the collaboration of Ferrocarrils de la Generalitat de Catalunya (FGC), Barcelona City Council, the Metropolitan Barcelona Area (AMB) and Transports Metropolitans de Barcelona (TMB).

- Neurodegenerative diseases, such as Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's, and age-related disorders, have been widely studied due to their significant impact on individuals and society. So far, these are incurable and debilitating diseases that lead to progressive degeneration and death of nerve cells, resulting in cognitive and mobility impairments. Tremors, mainly at rest, slowness of movement (bradykinesia), limb rigidity, and issues with gait and balance are typical motor disorders related to Parkinson’s disease. Additionally, due to progressive muscle atrophy, these issues can lead to falls, which in turn result in further complications and risks to quality of life.
