EICMA 2018 (the global trade show for two-wheeled transport) will be held in Milan in early November.
On 5 November, the fifth annual
Ricardo Motorcycle Conference will bring together senior management, engineers and ‘thought leaders’ from the world’s leading motorcycle brands — and their technology and component suppliers — to discuss future trends, technological opportunities and other matters.
There will be technical sessions on future powertrain technologies, future vehicle technologies and motorcycle market drivers, plus presentations by some of the world’s leading motorcycle manufacturers, Tier One suppliers, and academic researchers (including BMW Group, Bosch, Ducati, KTM Technologies, KISKA, Piaggio, Graz University of Technology, Politecnico di Milano, Queen’s University Belfast, and Ricardo Motor-cycle).
Paul Etheridge, Ricardo Motorcycle’s head of strategy and business development, said: “This conference provides an ideal opportunity to focus on some of the technological, regulatory and market-related challenges and opportunities faced by the world’s motorcycle industries.
“It also offers an excellent networking opportunity for motorcycle engineers and business people to meet and discuss matters of keen interest to our industry.
“The
Ricardo Motorcycle Conference has sold out in recent years, so I would urge those interested in attending to register without delay, taking advantage of the early-bird rate that is being offered.”
