At a time when the challenges of low-carbon mobility have never been so important for the planet, Gomet’, the “metropolitan media that creates links” in Aix Marseille Provence and the region, is taking the initiative to create a dedicated event: Les rencontres du vélo et des mobilités douces.
The 2023 edition of the event will take place on the 25 of May, in Marseille. The key themes of the event this year will be: urbanism, sport & health, innovation, cycling tourism and logistics.
The objectives of this unique event are numerous: to stimulate and feed the debate, to facilitate and enrich good practices, and to highlight and showcase concrete initiatives and solutions proposed by local and international players.
Conferences, workshops, exhibitions, stands, an innovation challenge, a pitch party, cyclo-visits, prizewinners, etc. will be offered throughout the day.
