Discover What’s Next at the Samson Smart Mobility Summit
The Samson Smart Mobility Summit brings together global leaders, innovators, policymakers, investors, and operators to explore what’s next in mobility — and how innovation moves from vision to real-world impact.
Alongside the main program, the Summit will host a rich lineup of high-impact side events, designed to turn ideas into action, connect the right people, and accelerate deployment across the ecosystem.
TrackMakers Pitch Day
10:30-12:00
From pitch to practice
In collaboration with Ayalon Highways, The TrackMakers Pitch Day is the final pitch stage of a national Call for Proposals to identify the Top 10 startups shaping the future of smart and resilient transportation infrastructure in Israel.
During this live session, selected startups will pitch on stage, with the Top 10 announced live and invited to join a 6-month, implementation-focused program offering regulatory access, testing opportunities, and direct engagement with infrastructure operators, public authorities, and investors — with continued exposure throughout the year, including at AI OnTrack 2026.
Smart Mobility in Local Authorities & Municipalities
10:30-11:30
The frontline of implementation
Municipalities are the testing ground where mobility vision meets reality. This session held in collaboration with Ayalon Highways and The Federation of Local Authorities in Israel focuses on the unique role of local authorities as regulators, adopters, and enablers of smart city technologies.
Bringing together city planners, municipal CIOs, and mobility innovators, this event will explore case studies of successful pilot-to-policy transitions and discuss how local governance can accelerate the deployment of autonomous, connected, and sustainable transport solutions.
Startup Spotlight
11:30-12:30
Bringing together VCs, CVCs, strategic investors and the most exciting mobility startups, this event is designed to accelerate startup–investor matching and connect capital with deployable smart mobility solutions to strengthen investor value across the Summit.

Women in Mobility (WIM): Creating Innovation Bridges
14:00-15:00
From connections to collaboration
In collaboration with WIM, This curated session brings together women leaders from industry, startups, investment, mobility operators, and the public sector, from Israel and global markets.
Combining a short stage segment with facilitated, action-oriented roundtables, the session is designed to build “innovation bridges” — surfacing real opportunities and barriers around scaling, regulation, procurement, and deployment, and translating them into concrete next steps.
Innovation to Tackle Public Transport Challenges
14:00-15:00
Public transportation is the backbone of urban mobility, yet it faces critical operational hurdles. How can we leverage new technologies to tackle fare evasion, bridge first-last-mile gaps, ensure reliability, and manage the complex shift to electric fleets?
This dedicated side event moves beyond theory into practice. Join a solution-driven dialogue between public transport authorities, operators, and global innovators as we identify the most pressing needs and explore the technologies capable of solving them.
