Jan Deman – President, Busworld Academy (Belgium)
USA / Belgium - Moving on to providing an overview of the bus and coach industry at the ABA Marketplace and Busworld Academy Conference in Omaha, Nebraska, USA, Deman said: “As Busworld, we stand at a crossroads, where bus manufacturers, operators, authorities and knowledge institutions meet, and from this point we notice that never before in our industry so many initiatives have been taken to exchange ideas and insights as today. Worldwide, never before has more money been invested in our sector, whether it is in renewal of our fleets, road and charging infrastructure, in digitalization of our marketing and sales tools, in research and deployment projects of all kinds of innovations, and yet, we still do not succeed and fully deliver on our KPIs.”
