2026 New Shared Mobility Summit

Too many people lack safe, reliable, affordable transportation. Changing that requires people who trust each other, share a unified vision, and act together. The 2026 New Shared Mobility Summit (September 9-11 in Chicago, IL) brings together Change Leaders in regional Change Teams: cross-sector coalitions of 8-12 leaders from cities, transit agencies, community organizations, and philanthropy. Through virtual workshops, collaborative in-person sessions, and post-event follow-up, teams build deep relationships and commit to people-centered mobility. Building on the 2025 inaugural cohort, SUMC continues investing in people who change systems. Learn more at the New Shared Mobility Summit webpage.
What Makes the New Summit Different:
- Questions and conversations centered on insights from participants, not lectures from the stage
- Shared agreements and intentional reflection to foster trust as a foundation for action
- Local champions identify diverse leaders regardless of titles; fees are waived and travel stipends are offered to ensure equity
