The Voice of Europe’s Cableway Industry
FIANET brings together national cableway associations from across Europe – representing the industry with one strong, coordinated voice. It works to shape policy, promote common standards, and support the long-term success of cableways through dialogue with European institutions and the public.
Founded in 1958, FIANET has decades of experience in connecting expertise and advancing the sector at a European level.
A Strategic Sector for Europe
Cableways are essential for tourism, regional mobility, and sustainable development in both mountain and urban areas. They support the economic vitality of mountain regions, enable year-round tourism, and help counteract depopulation.
As safe, reliable, and energy-efficient transport systems, cableways are also playing an increasing role in urban mobility and climate-friendly infrastructure.
Shaping the Future: Responsibly and Sustainably
The cableway industry stands for innovation, environmental responsibility, and long-term investment. As one of the few fully electrified transport systems, it enables low-impact access to sensitive areas while helping protect natural resources and local communities.
FIANET brings together expertise from across Europe to actively contribute to policymaking –offering solutions that balance economic growth, environmental protection, and social cohesion.
