This month, Autotech Council members open their discussion on Connected Cars to the public. Join OEMs, suppliers, startups and VCs to discover technologies, across connectivity, data and analytics, and apps and service.

The connected car is in the spotlight this decade. With millions of connected vehicles on our roads already, specific trends are fostering the explosion of connectivity, and associated products, services, and societal benefits. New 5G networks, availability of new spectrum, progress in smart cities, Edge cloud computing, and AI combine to enable a real-time, fully connected car. We will see an explosion of V2V accident avoidance, better flowing traffic, better utilized vehicle resources, telematics, and infotainment solutions enter into our private cars, shared livery, and public transport.

We expect a vibrant discussion around key topics, as well as hearing from a number of innovative solution providers across the following likely topics:

  • Radios & protocol, 5G
  • Cybersecurity
  • C-V2x
  • Telematics
  • Safety, ADAS, and self-driving
  • Personalization, PIM, preferences
  • UI / Augmented Reality
  • Voice-assistants
  • Cloud and Edge compute
  • Smart infrastructure
  • Crowdsourcing, car as sensor, machine learning
  • Environmental protection
  • Updates, patches
  • Upgrades, e-commerce, subscriptions

Connected car functionality and deployment depend on a region’s regulatory environment making policy factors an important aspect of this discussion, in particular where highway safety is concerned. The US DOT, for example, is pulling CCs forward within the Intelligent Transportations Systems (ITS) strategic plan from the US DOT. Meanwhile other regions are also forging ahead, for example, the Strategic Innovation Promotion Program in Japan, which was planning connected self-driving demos around the now-delayed 2020 Olympic Games. But ultimately, what is possible will be defined by the innovators. 

This meeting will focus on the new technologies and innovations enabling the future of the connected car; and introduce you to the startups and entrepreneurs making this future a reality.
