Fabrizio Ruggiero, deputy CEO, Europcar Mobility Group, will deliver the keynote address at the 2020 International Car Rental Show, taking place March 22-24 at Caesars Palace, Las Vegas. 

In his address, “Mobility is Changing, and So Are We!” Ruggiero will outline how Europcar is transforming into a mobility service company and challenge the ICRS audience to rethink car rental as car ownership gives way to a sharing economy. Ruggiero will also communicate Europcar’s strategy for the U.S. market.
