COVID-19 has accelerated innovation with new problems requiring new solutions. The unpredictable nature of the pandemic has meant that the rail sector can no longer rely on precedence to predict passenger behaviour, freight demands, employee shift patterns and maintenance requirements. Interdepartmental and real-time data management will be crucial for any rail operator to survive the continuing uncertainty.

This webinar will raise awareness of these opportunities and challenges, and present real success stories of organisations who have thrived through the big data explosion. How can rail better gather, visualise and integrate information and streamline communication between departments?

A live webinar audience will hear from leading rail operators, infrastructure owners and digitalisation experts Smart Motors on adopting the technologies and strategies to gain maximum benefit from available data. The debate will be chaired by PwC’s rail and road leader, Paolo Guglielminetti.
