The Federation Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA), the global governing body for motorsport and the federation for mobility organisations worldwide, is set for a busy agenda of high-level discussions at its annual FIA Regionl Spring Meeting starting in Marrakech on Tuesday.

FIA President Mohammed Ben Sulayem will be in attendance at the three-day assembly of mobility and motorsport leaders from across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa to discuss key initiatives in road safety, sustainable mobility, regional sporting growth, and innovation in transport.

Speaking ahead of the conference, which is hosted by Mobilite Club Maroc, Ben Sulayem said: "As a global federation it is not often that we are able to unite our community in one place, so moments like this are particularly special.

"The next few days will provide an invaluable opportunity for engagement and participation, along with key votes to decide on the leadership of our community."
