Autotech Council's Annual Science Fair is a once-a-year opportunity for technology companies to introduce their innovations to strategy, R&D, scouting, and partnership executives from across the mobility industry.
Car makers, vendors, startups, academics, and investors promote their innovations, products and co-development projects in a show-and-tell format. 100s of tech scouts and business development executives across automotive, transportation, and mobility visit the Science Fair to shop for innovation, search for synergies, and brainstorm potential use cases with their innovation colleagues.
Join industry leaders as they browse exhibits, online or onsite, to discover companies and technologies transforming the automotive industry and take the next step with pre-arranged, private meetings of mutual interest curated by our MatchMaker Meeting service.
Every year, 100s of participants share thousands of ideas and new technologies at our Annual Science Fair onsite & online.

Meeting Format
Our onsite session on Oct 12 in Silicon Valley feels just like a high school Science Fair. Exhibits are technical and hands-on, not flashy; focusing on the innovation instead of superficial marketing and tradeshow booths, Science Fair exhibitors get an 8 foot table to display their most innovative products and ideas with exhibits staffed by technical and engineering managers who can answer real questions, understand integration, and can brainstorm synergies and use cases.
Our online session on Oct 13 in the Autotech Council Virtual Lounge, starts with an hour of live online demos and networking at virtual tables. Then attendees move to the Portal for keyword-searchable product information, videos, technical content, and the MatchMaker Meeting Service for pre-scheduled private meetings.
