Medell\u00edn<\/strong>\u00a0solidified its position as the epicenter of Latin America’s clean transportation conversation on June 10 and 11, when the\u00a0Orquideorama<\/strong>\u00a0at the\u00a0Botanical Garden<\/strong>\u00a0hosted the sixth edition of\u00a0Latam Mobility Colombia 2026<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The summit, part of the\u00a0Latam Mobility 2026 Tour<\/strong>, brought together more than 1,200 attendees, including representatives from national and local governments, low-emission vehicle manufacturers, fleet operators, infrastructure providers, startups, and public policy experts.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Costa Rica<\/strong>\u00a0also joined as the guest country of honor, sharing its deep experience in transport electrification and carbon neutrality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The natural setting of the Orquideorama provided a stunning backdrop for two intense days of networking, learning, and strategic alliance-building\u2014fully reflecting Latam Mobility’s commitment to accelerating transportation\u00a0decarbonization<\/strong>\u00a0across the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You may also be interested in:<\/strong>\u00a0Toyota\u00a0bets on multi-technology,\u00a0Xpeng\u00a0on AI\u2014Auteco Blue,\u00a0Autovard\u00ed, and\u00a0Inchcape\u00a0join the debate on innovation in Colombia’s automotive ecosystem<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Throughout both days, the event featured a packed agenda of panels and conversations<\/strong> tackling the most pressing sustainable mobility challenges in the region. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Thematic pillars included governance and mobility (with a special emphasis on the public sector’s role as a driver of regional development),\u00a0B2B charging infrastructure<\/strong>\u00a0(analyzing financial models, technology, and the role of\u00a0CPOs<\/strong>, or Charge Point Operators), and the regional automotive ecosystem (focusing on innovation and clean-tech adoption).<\/p>\n\n\n\n Other key tracks covered Smart Cities<\/strong> and new mobility, exploring international best practices; 360 logistics, with deep dives into Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)<\/strong> , renting, and clean fleet renewal in supply chains; and collaboration strategies to decarbonize freight transport\u2014a critical lever for the region’s sustainable economic growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Day two zeroed in on public transport decarbonization, with panels dedicated to co-financing, regional programs, and Colombia’s positioning in the global energy transition, alongside the market, regulatory, financing, and scalability challenges facing zero- and low-emission mobility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The technology exhibition area was a major draw, bringing together dozens of exhibitors from across the sustainable mobility value chain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Attendees explored booths featuring low-emission vehicles across multiple segments\u2014passenger cars, light urban logistics vehicles, and electric buses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The\u00a0micromobility<\/strong>\u00a0zone stood out, displaying electric scooters and shared mobility systems that reflect the growing demand for agile, sustainable urban transport. <\/p>\n\n\n\n A technology pavilion rounded out the experience with charging infrastructure, fleet management software, telematics, and energy storage solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Alongside the panel sessions, specialized workshops offered technical, hands-on training. On day one, Logyca<\/strong> delivered a Master Class on strategies for reducing transport emissions, covering concrete methodologies for measuring and mitigating logistics carbon footprints.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Day two featured a session led by\u00a0ACOMOVES<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Fenalco Antioquia<\/strong>\u00a0titled “LATAM: Connecting Regions, Boosting Electromobility,” which encouraged participants to build a shared vision from the ground up.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Defencarga<\/strong>\u00a0gave a workshop on road safety applied to transport operations\u2014an essential component for fleet sustainability. Finally, the\u00a0University of Antioquia<\/strong>\u00a0and the\u00a0Battery Diagnosis Center<\/strong>\u00a0led a technical workshop on battery lifespan and the influence of charging and operating conditions, a timely topic given the accelerating pace of fleet electrification.<\/p>\n\n\n\n These training sessions, available exclusively to invited guests and VIP ticket holders, allowed for deeper dives into the key elements for successfully implementing sustainable mobility in the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Latam Mobility Colombia 2026<\/strong>\u00a0wouldn’t have been possible without the support of its strategic partners, allied companies, sponsors, and speakers, whose vision made this eighth edition a true milestone. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Special recognition goes out to local and national authorities, manufacturing companies, logistics operators, infrastructure providers, and startups that actively participated, enriching the debate and creating valuable business and collaboration opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The\u00a0Latam Mobility 2026 Tour<\/strong>\u00a0continues its journey with two must-attend events.
