Every two years in September, Frankfurt becomes the center of attention for the automotive industry.
The IAA Conference, organized by the German VDA, officially opened the IAA. Over the course of three days, the program investigated how megatrends like artificial intelligence, smart cities, the sharing economy, autonomous driving, and alternative powertrains are changing mobility.
On two large stages, the old and new generation of mobility companies presented the latest products, innovative processes, and unique solutions for the mobility of the future.
Topics ranged from User Experience & Safe Driving, New advance materials, the future of in-car entertainment, 5G, and Virtual & Augmented Reality to the future of last-mile transport, Automation, personalized mass transportation, new markets & disruption, MaaS, and of course, AI.
The broad range of speakers included innovators such as Clare Jones from what3words, Hyperloop’s Dirk Ahlborn, and BYTON CEO & Co-Founder, Dr. Daniel Kirchert.
I had the privilege and great pleasure of hosting these three days of exciting talks and panel discussions, realized by the incredible event team from evenson.
