By embracing smart infrastructure, renewable energy integration, and advanced mobility technologies, WorldPrizes aims to contribute to a future where transportation enhances quality of life and supports a more sustainable planet.

Telepresence refers to a set of technologies which allow a person to feel as if they were present, to give the appearance of being present, or to have an effect, via telerobotics, at a place other than their true location.
A virtual event is an online event that involves people interacting in a virtual environment on the web, rather than meeting in a physical location. Virtual events are typically multi-session online events that often feature webinars and webcasts. They are highly interactive, often aiming to create as similar an experience as possible to their physical counterparts.
In the past few years, leading aerospace companies and startups alike have broken new ground in the design of electric vertical take-off and landing vehicles (eVTOLs), which offer significantly greater efficiency and flexibility than traditional point-to-point options, such as helicopters. To date, almost every major technological hurdle required to make this vision a reality has been overcome — and perhaps most importantly, it is on track to be achieved at a competitive price-point.
Urban areas are the most complex settings in which the mobility of passengers and freight is taking place. In several instances, passengers and freight movements are complementary, but sometimes they may be competing for the usage of available land and transport infrastructures.

Transportation is the easiest way of movement of humans, animals and goods from one location to another.

Modes of long distance transportation include air, land (rail and road), water, cable, pipeline and space. The field can be divided into infrastructure, vehicles and operations. Transportation enables trade between people, which is essential for the development of civilizations.
