Tespen Robotics will take part in Tomorrow.Mobility World Congress from 3 to 5 November 2026 at Fira Barcelona Gran Via in L’Hospitalet de Llobregat, Barcelona. Supported by EIT Urban Mobility, Tespen will have its own exhibition stand, share company materials and present Ugo, its autonomous driving software and retrofit kit for the city buses transit operators already own.

Ugo is currently in development in simulation, on digital twins of real routes. Hardware-in-the-loop, closed-course and supervised on-road testing are planned as subsequent steps. Tespen’s approach starts with fixed routes, defined geography and existing bus fleets.

The team will be available to meet transit operators, cities, researchers and mobility partners during the event. To arrange a meeting, contact [email protected].

“We believe the next phase of autonomy will come not just from technological advances, but from the ability to actually deploy these systems and have a real positive impact on people’s lives. That’s why cities don’t need new buses to benefit from autonomy - they need the buses they already run to be more reliable and available. This event in Barcelona brings together operators, cities and technology providers, and we’re very happy to show what Europe can gain from autonomy.”

said Vittorio Dini, Founder and CEO of Tespen Robotics
