Abstract
The 10 th jubilee congress of the HS is a good opportunity to present the influence of the UIC on the development of high-speed railways and the history of cyclic congresses. UIC (International Railway Union ( fr. Union International des Chemin de fer), as the worldwide professional association representing the railway sector and promoting rail transport, leads an innovative and dynamic sector. Since 1922, UIC supports their Members in their efforts to develop new business and areas of activities, as well as proposes new ways to improve technical and environmental performance of rail transport.
