🚀 We are excited to announce that BLEES and Autonomous Systems have joined the group of official Partners of our conference!

🚌 Blees is a company based in Gliwice, Poland, that has developed the first autonomous electric minibus designed and built entirely in Poland. The BB-1 model is intended for short-distance routes in urban areas, parks, campuses, and low-traffic zones. It accommodates 15 passengers, ensures full accessibility, and travels at speeds of up to 25 km/h – all with zero emissions.

🤖 The vehicle’s autonomy is powered by Autonomous Systems – a Polish company specializing in autonomous systems for public transport vehicles. The company develops solutions that enable bus automation already at the production stage, supporting the development of so-called smartbuses – a new generation of vehicles capable of operating without a driver.

The BB-1 minibus has already been tested in regular passenger service – including on the campus of the Silesian University of Technology and in Silesian Park. It’s a real-life example of how modern technology is reshaping urban mobility.

During the conference, you’ll have the unique chance to see and experience the autonomous bus in action. The vehicle will shuttle between the reception area and the main event venue, allowing participants to hop on and ride at any time throughout the conference. It’s a great opportunity to step aboard this innovative minibus and experience the future of clean, autonomous urban transport.
