Join the AIT Belt and Road Webinar Series #4 on “High-speed railway – the flagship project to boost regional connection” and hear experts discuss its benefits and implications in the near future!

In 2013, China launched the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) to improve connectivity and cooperation on a transcontinental scale. High-speed railway is one of the signature projects within the Belt and Road initiatives. In the last couple of years, a number of bilateral and multilateral infrastructure construction projects have sprung up with the support of the Belt and Road framework, injecting new driving forces into the economic and social development.

Since high-speed railway is accelerating the expansion of its construction network, and gradually becoming one of the mainstream transportation options, it possesses many irreplaceable advantages such as economic feasibility, efficiency and safety, energy conservation, environmental friendliness, etc.

The webinar will offer insights from the experts who have been deeply engaged in the high-speed railway projects and research, particularly on the benefits to the region.

– Keynote presentations from experts in the Industry
– Technical Talks by AIT faculty
