Closing Event SETO – Smart Enforcement of Transport Operations

SETO

Transport enforcement simplified

Over the past three years, SETO, funded by the Horizon Europe programme, has brought together leading partners from across Europe to rethink how transport enforcement can be made smarter, more efficient, and more sustainable. The project has developed new technologies, and data‑driven solutions designed to support authorities. As a result, transport operators will be elevated by ensuring a future‑proof logistics ecosystem with safer roads and fair competition.

We will highlight SETO’s achievements, share lessons learned from the Living Labs, and explore how the project’s innovations can be translated into real‑world deployment.

We invite you to join the conversation on the future of smart enforcement.
