OFFICIAL EP EVENTAutomated Vehicles in the EU: Deployment and ImpactsSTOA workshop📅 Date:21/04/2026🕐 Time:15:00 - 17:00📍 Location:SPAAK 5B1, European Parliament, BrusselsLive StreamAbout the EventThe European Union is currently implementing and possibly reviewing some aspects of its regulation related to the type approval of automated vehicles (General Vehicle Safety Regulation and its delegated and implementing acts) while vehicle manufacturers are increasingly putting more models on the market. As this technology continues to develop, it has the potential to significantly transform urban mobility and the way citizens move within European cities.This STOA workshop, hosted by MEP Pierfrancesco Maran, will examine the technological and regulatory drivers shaping the deployment of automated vehicles in Europe and explore possible policy options to support future EU decision-making in this area. The workshop will also mark the publication of the STOA study 'Expected Impact of the Deployment of Automated Vehicles in the EU' and will provide an opportunity to exchange views with key stakeholders, experts and EU policymakers.Once officially released, the STOA study 'Expected Impact of the Deployment of Automated Vehicles in the EU' will be made available at the webpage of STOA and sent to registered workshop participants via email.Hosted by+Pierfrancesco MARANMEP ItalyMember of the European Parliament S&D Partito Democratico Pierfrancesco MARANCommitteesCHAIR ENVIEnvironment, Public Health & Food SafetyEMPLEmployment & Social AffairsDelegationsDSEEDelegation for relations with Bosnia & Herzegovina & KosovoDEPADelegation to the Euronest Parliamentary AssemblyDSCADSCA Delegation×Speakers⬇ ProgrammeWerner HUBERProfessorTechnische Hochschule Ingolstadt (THI)Michael BOTSCHProfessorTechnische Hochschule Ingolstadt (THI)Maria Cristina GALASSITeam Leader – Automated/Connected Vehicles and SafetyEuropean CommissionDG GROW Sergio Matteo SAVARESIProfessorPolitecnico di MilanoAntoine de KORTPrincipal Advisor for Automated Transport PolicyNetherlands Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management / EFAT Stéphane DREHERHead of CCAMERTICO – ITS Europe Marzena JOUGOUNOUXPolicy OfficerEuropean CommissionDG RTD Programme15:00Welcome and Introductory remarksPierfrancesco MARAN15:05Keynote speechWerner HUBERMichael BOTSCHTopics: Expected Impact of the Deployment of Automated Vehicles in the EU (STOA Study presentation)15:30Panel discussionModerated by: Werner HUBERMaria Cristina GALASSISergio Matteo SAVARESIAntoine DE KORTStéphane DREHERMarzena JOUGOUNOUX15:30Q&A sessionModerated by: Michael BOTSCH16:50Closing remarksPierfrancesco MARANOrganised byPanel for the Future of Science and Technology (STOA)European Parliament Science and Technology Assessment Important – This event is by invitation, and only registered participants will be admitted.
