From the Winter Olympics to Everyday Mobility with Dr. Francesca Pili, FNM Group

Milano-Cortina 2026 was not a single-city Games. With events spread across regions and alpine corridors, it was a real stress test for regional mobility, governance and passenger experience.

Dr. Francesca Pili, Executive Director and Board Member at FNM Group, explains how an integrated mobility model can deliver everyday reliability while scaling for major events. She covers system-level optimisation across infrastructure, fleets, renewable energy and digital operations, plus FNM’s decarbonisation roadmap including fleet renewal, renewable generation and hydrogen trains.

You’ll hear practical lessons on capacity planning under uncertainty, aligning stakeholders early, and designing legacy that lasts. The conversation also looks ahead to 2030: automation, AI literacy, and why cultural change is essential for digital transformation.
