    Goals / Remit

    POLIS is a network of leading European cities and regions working together to develop innovative technologies and policies for local transport.

    Since 1989, European local and regional authorities and transport-related organizations have been working together within POLIS to promote sustainable mobility through deployment of innovative transport solutions.

    Our aim is to improve local transport through integrated strategies that address the economic, social and environmental dimensions of transport. To this end, POLIS supports the exchange of experiences and the transfer of knowledge between European local and regional authorities and transport-related organizations.

    POLIS fosters cooperation and partnerships across Europe with the aim of making research and innovation in transport accessible to cities and regions. The network and its secretariat actively support the participation of POLIS members in European projects and is itself a partner in several of those project (...)

    Meetings

    11 meetings found. Download meetings

    The list below only covers meetings held since November 2014 with commissioners, their cabinet members or directors-general at the European Commission; other lobby meetings with lower-level staff may have taken place, but the European Commission doesn't proactively publish information about these meetings. For more information about which commissioner is responsible for which portfolio, check out this link: https://commissioners.ec.europa.eu/index_en All information below comes from European Commission web pages.

    1 July 2024: We have noted that some meetings are appearing in duplicate, ie. some meetings seem to be listed twice. This seems to be because the Commission changes some element of a meeting data after the meeting has first been listed, which causes LobbyFacts to register it as a new meeting. We are investigating further.
