As part of the activities planned within the T4Rail (IT-SI) project, funded through the Interreg Italy-Slovenia programme, the Department of Economic, Business, Mathematical and Statistical Sciences (DEAMS) at the University of Trieste will host the workshop ‘Technological Opportunities in Railway Operations at the Italy-Slovenia Border: Challenges and Potential Impacts.’

This event, which will provide a forum for discussing innovations in railway transport in border areas, will take place on Friday, 21st February 2025, from 16:00 to 19:00 in the Bruno de Finetti Conference Room (Room 1_A, first floor) of Building D at the Piazzale Europa 1 campus.
