Connected Car was the trigger for many service and product providers outside the classic automotive industry. After the networking of the individual mobility segments (car, bus, train, aircraft) with the smartphone, the next step is the networking of the individual segments with each other – and that across industry borders.

This new ecosystem automotive enables a cooperation between automobile manufacturers, telecommunications companies, insurance companies, public institutions, financial service providers, and software or hardware providers via digital platforms.

As a result, new markets, new technologies, new requirements and standards are increasingly emerging. At our congress, established stakeholders of the automotive ecosystem will provide insights and will discuss: Which mutual or opposite targets, expectations and challenges are there concerning products, applications, cyber security, launches and user benefits? What is the current state of affairs? What is the trend? What experience have been made and what will the future bring?

The lectures will be held in English
