Program 2025

For 20 years, on the eve of the TRAKO Fair, the Association for Interoperability and Development of Rail Transport has been organizing a seminar, which is entered in the program of the International TRAKORailway Fair. During this year's editionion of the fair, we invite you to the seminar: "Cyber ​​security in rail transport, requirements of the KSC Act, threats, challenges and teams/organizations and their actions", which will take place on September 22 at AmberExpo conference center at ul. Żaglowa 11 in Gdańsk.

In mid -2025, the provisions of the NIS2 Parliament and the Council of the European Union regarding funds for the high common cyber security level were introduced into Polish law. Pursuant to these provisions, the managers and rail carriers must take numerous actions necessary to provide protection against cyber threads. Parallel to the introduction of NIS2 to the national law of individual Member States, the European Parliament has adopted a regulation on horizontal requirements in the field of cyber security in relation to products with digital elements that apply to solutions used for the needs of railways. This regulation gives railway entities a tool, which, however, requires supplementing with rail technical requirements. The intention of the seminar is to summarize the state of clarification and introduction of these regulations in Poland as the most attacked in the cyberspace of the European Union country.

The role of transport and logistics in a new geopolitical environment - debate of the leaders of Polish logistics

Issues to discuss:

• Vision of the development of intermodal transport and support priorities in the next financial perspective after 2027. Will there be a demand for co -financing of intermodal transport in the subsidy system in the next EU financial perspective?
• Priorities in the field of intermodal transport in the perspective of the EU extension (Serbia, Montenegro, Albania and Macedonia North, followed by Ukraine and Moldova as well as Georgia, Bosnia and Herzegovina)
• Challenges in the transport process - technology, regulations, logistics. Identifying and analyzing barriers/problems in the transport process
• Increasing the competitiveness of intermodal transport in Poland, what influences, what changes should be introduced?
• influence of war on the logistics market; Is the Eastern direction forever (or in the predictable future) lost and what in return?
• The effects of the US voters for the logistics market; Is the US economic insulation only campaign rhetoric, or does the European economy really have to switch to industry development, where logistics and transport play a key role? What are the key needs in such a situation, but what is no less important what TSL can offer in the field of business and organizational innovations to strengthen industrial acceleration?
• Logistics sector problems and strategies to solve them
• The role of logistics in the pursuit of carbon neutrality

Financing of infrastructure as well as research and development programs against the background of today's challenges for railways in Europe: security and reindustrialization

Topics

• The role of railways in achieving revised European policy goals
• Investment financing rules (change of paradigm from "green" to "industrial")
• Infrastructure maintenance (financing, rules, goals)
• Market potential (research and development, long -term strategies, situation of native entities, staff)
• System threats (defense, cyber security, expansion of third countries)

We invite you to a debate, during which, together with experts, we will look at the key plans, challenges and threats related to the financing of transport projects from European Union funds. We will talk about topics regarding the liberalization of the railway market in the context of EU funds, connecting investments with necessary reforms and decarbonization of transport in the context of maintaining competitiveness. During the debate, there will also be talks about the role of transport in the context of growing threats from the East and its militarization (Dual Use).
