Also, different parallel sessions were organised in order to discuss in detail potential projects/actions to be carried out following PROEBIKE approach in order to look for the promotion of electrical bikes and scooters for delivery of goods and passenger transport in urban areas. Within this ideas, the role of local authorities and the support of ICT technology for business was pointed out as relevant. The regional dissemination seminar organised was also a great opportunity for disseminate the PROEBIKE Information toolkit which was handed over to all the participants in the event.
