Transformation Now

Germany’s Federal Counsil , the Bundesrat, has called for a ban on new registrations of combustion-engine cars from 2030, while Norway wants to take petrol and Diesel cars off the road by as early as 2025. Cars that can drive themselves, at least some of the time, will be with us even sooner. Instead of relying on wheels alone, some cars may even be able to take to the sky.

The is undergoing the biggest transformation in its 130-year history. “In the next five to ten years”, predicts General Motors CEO Mary Barra, “there will be more changes than in the previous 50.” Digitalization and electrification are making their mark on business models just like new consumption patterns and social changes. For the car companies, this poses an existential question: how can a highly complex system that has emerged over generations adapt successfully in such a short time? What is needed to master this transformation?

Handelsblatt’s 25th Automotive Summit in Sindelfingen will attempt to answer this with the help of top experts from around the world. Over two days, the Mercedes-Benz Customer Center in Sindelfingen will host discussions on the strategic realignment of the industry, on new alliances and driving concepts, and on the political and economic context to this enormous transformation process. Vehicle manufacturers and suppliers, IT companies, entrepreneurs and designers, politicians and consumer groups will present their ideas, concepts and strategies, engage in discussions with you and try out new technical solutions.

We look forward to an informative and inspiring summit in Sindelfingen.
