Railway Diagnostic and Monitoring Conference 2026

Overview

AI and resilience: How do the driving forces of data economy affect the railway sector?

Data collection, processing and use in the railway sector are subject to major developments: On the one hand, the use of artificial intelligence will significantly expand the possibilities for analysing and utilising data in the coming years. On the other hand, resilience and cyber security will continue to grow in importance.

Under the framework conditions of European and national legislation, industry and operators in the railway sector are called upon to develop and promote technologies, use cases and business models. The next Railway Diagnostic and Monitoring Conference (RMDC) on 16 and 17 April 2026 in Hamburg will address these topics.

What can AI really do in the context of railway data, and where is it driving progress? What levels of protection and resilience need to be considered, and could cyber security potentially slow down development? What do NIS2, the Cyber Resilience Act and the Data Act mean for the railway industry? What technological developments are taking place? And above all: what use cases and best practices already exist in the sector today?

With presentations and talks from speakers from industry, the railway sector and beyond, RDMC 2026 offers an outstanding opportunity to exchange ideas on these highly topical and dynamic issues. The event is aimed at participants from infrastructure operators, railway companies and fleet operators, as well as from the railway and data industries – and follows on seamlessly from the successful series of previous annual RDMC conferences in The Hague, Cologne and Lucerne.

This year, we were once again offering digital participation via a livestream.
