Jalon has launched, on March 12, 2019, the very first edition of the Jalon Mobility Awards.
This fun and festive gathering will recognize the efforts made by key agents of change within the ecosystem, from those who are shaping the mobility of tomorrow to those who are questioning how it should all be done. The gala will take place on Thursday, October 17, 2019 at the Cirque Éloize studios in Montréal’s Dalhousie Station and will be hosted by journalist, presenter and producer Stéphan Bureau.
Awards in nine categories
During the event, nine prizes will be awarded in the following categories:
- Technological innovation
- Digital innovation
- Collective and shared mobility
- Active mobility
- Urban logistics
- Urban planning
- Start-up companies
- Human Experience
- Student award
An independent jury (members to be announced at a later date) will oversee the awarding of the prizes.
“The Jalon Awards Gala will shine a light on the key mobility players in the Greater Montréal Area and across Québec whose projects and actions are driving the way forward, inspiring us to question things, to evolve, and even to initiate a paradigm shift in order to shape the intelligent and sustainable mobility of tomorrow. At Jalon, we are convinced that now is the time to rally the driving forces of the mobility landscape to respond in a more synergistic manner to the many growing challenges that we face. This event serves as an opportunity to celebrate those who are already making an invaluable contribution in that regard,” says Jean-François Tremblay, President and CEO of Jalon.
