Mario Castangia - Unit Director
Transport Engineering & Data Science Unit
I have been consulting for 20+ years in the field of Strategic Transport Planning and Data Analytics for mobility planning, over a broad portfolio of projects across many continents.
Since January 2025, I lead the MIC-HUB Transport Engineering and Data Science Unit. This is the main point of reference for all activities pertaining the harvesting and analysis of mobility data. I firmly believe that extracting knowledge from data has a more and more crucial role in informing strategic planning and modelling activities.
I directly coordinate data analysis activities in the case of higher-complexity projects and plans, whereas the Unit I lead provides advices on, and supervision of, the use of data analysis methodologies and tools for projects and plans with lower complexity.
On a personal note, I very much enjoy working in team, biking, and doing long walks in nature.
