About the Smart Mobility Institute
The Smart Mobility Institute (SMI) is an organisation of Nexus Communication in collaboration with corporate opinion leaders to accelerate the development of smart mobility management within companies.
The SMI is a cross-functional networking group of buyer profiles willing to share best practices, explore new possibilities, benchmark with suppliers and inspire each other with real mobility solutions. Within the SMI we are shaping a common vision around corporate smart mobility. The institute is designed exclusively for corporate mobility managers with an international responsibility and their stakeholders.
