Downer @ InnoTrans 2026

InnoTrans 2026 highlights and what's next 

Let’s Explore the Next Steps

The conversations from InnoTrans don’t end here.

InnoTrans 2026 may be over, but the opportunities, ideas and partnerships shaping the future of rail continue.

Over four days in Berlin, Downer connected with customers, partners, technology providers and future talent from across the global rail industry. Together, we explored how digital innovation, smarter asset management, sustainable freight solutions and strategic partnerships can help create more resilient and future-ready rail and transit networks.

Whether we met at InnoTrans or you’re discovering Downer for the first time, we invite you to continue the conversation.

Explore how Downer is helping customers:

  • Modernise fleets while balancing availability, cost and risk
