Pár dní v Berlíně, spousta novinek a ještě víc setkání. Takový byl InnoTrans 2026. 🚅 Minulý týden v Berlíně byl plný novinek, našich vozidel a technologií, prezentací, schůzek a hlavně spousty skvělých setkání s lidmi z celého dopravního oboru. Teď se za těmi několika intenzivními dny ohlížíme v krátkém videu. 🎥 Velké díky patří celému týmu Škoda Group, který za naší prezentací na InnoTrans stál. Za měsíce příprav, energii přímo na místě a za to, že jsme se v Berlíně mohli ukázat v plné síle. 👏 _______________________________________________ A few days in Berlin, plenty of new developments and even more great conversations. That was InnoTrans 2026. 🚅 Last week in Berlin was packed with new products, our vehicles and technologies, presentations, meetings and, above all, countless conversations with people from across the transport industry. Now we’re looking back at those intense few days in a short video. 🎥 A huge thank you to the entire Škoda Group team behind our presence at InnoTrans. For the months of preparation, the energy on site and for bringing everything together in Berlin. 👏 #SkodaGroup #SmartMobility #PublicTransport #InnoTrans2026

Na našem stánku na InnoTrans jsme přivítali ministra dopravy Ivan Bednárik. 🚆 Jsme rádi, že si našel čas zastavit se za Škoda Group a projít si naši expozici i novinky, které letos v Berlíně představujeme. Právě InnoTrans je skvělým místem pro osobní setkání a otevřenou diskusi s lidmi, kteří ovlivňují směřování dopravy v Česku i Evropě. Děkujeme za návštěvu! _______________________________________________ We welcomed Czech Minister of Transport Ivan Bednárik to our stand at InnoTrans. 🚆 We’re glad he took the time to stop by Škoda Group and explore our exhibition and the latest solutions we are presenting in Berlin this year. InnoTrans is a great place for face-to-face meetings and open discussions with people who are helping shape the future of transport in Czechia and across Europe. Thank you for the visit!

What a start to InnoTrans 2026! This morning, the world's largest trade fair for transport technology opened its doors, and I had the great pleasure of joining the opening panel in excellent company, alongside EU Commissioner Apostolos Tzitzikostas, Federal Minister Steffen Bilger and fellow leaders Martin Sion from Alstom, Michael Peter from Siemens Mobility and Ian Choudri from the California High-Speed Rail Authority. My core message? Rail is not just a mode of transport. It is a strategic asset. It builds robust infrastructure, connects people and economies, strengthens competitiveness and is the lifeblood of Europe's single market. This year, we have brought to Berlin the Škoda 52T tram for Prague, the new battery train, the trolleybus for Esslingen and many other solutions. At Škoda Group, we don't just deliver vehicles, we also act as a mobility integrator. Around 40% of our business already comes from technologies and systems beyond the vehicle itself. I look forward to discussing the topics shaping the future of public mobility here in Berlin this week! #InnoTrans2026 #SkodaGroup #SmartMobility

UNIFE | The European Rail Supply Industry Association On Wednesday at the UNIFE General Assembly in Brussels, I had the opportunity to discuss the future competitiveness of the European rail industry together with Jozef Síkela, representatives of the European Commission, and fellow industry leaders. The discussion highlighted a growing challenge for European manufacturers: competing against state-supported players from outside Europe. Fair competition, reciprocal market access, and effective implementation of the Foreign Subsidies Regulation are essential to maintaining a level playing field. As a European rail manufacturer with a strong presence beyond the EU, Škoda Group sees these challenges firsthand. We are proud to be one of the spearheads of European industry in Central Asia, bringing European technology, standards, and know-how to strategically important markets while competing globally every day. Europe’s rail sector is a strategic asset that drives innovation, sustainability, industrial sovereignty, and high-quality jobs. To remain competitive, procurement frameworks must reward long-term value, lifecycle performance, technological excellence, and resilience—not simply the lowest upfront price. Thanks to UNIFE | The European Rail Supply Industry Association for organizing this discussion and to all participants for their commitment to strengthening the future of the European rail industry. #UNIFE #RailwayIndustry #EuropeanIndustry #Competitiveness #ForeignSubsidies #Rail #Mobility #SkodaGroup #MadeInEurope #CentralAsia #GlobalGateway
