Excellencies, esteemed experts, ladies and gentlemen,
The German Federal Ministry for Digital and Transport and the Swiss Federal Department of the
Environment, Transport, Energy and Communications have the honour to officially invite you to the

The digital automatic coupling DAC is the core component for the automation of rail freight transport. In
order for the DAC to be effective, it must be introduced on a large scale. As European countries with a

We look forward to welcoming many participants from the EU member states, relevant institutions and
the industry.
