Automotive Innovation Summit 2018 in Neckarsulm Will Attempt to Answer This with the Help of Leading Professionals and Experts from Around the World 26-27 November, 2018 AUDI Forum Neckarsulm, Germany Transform Now! The automotive industry is undergoing the biggest change in its entire history. Germany will ban the sale of new cars with internal combustion engines from 2030, as well as recently French government has stated to restrict the sale of petrol and diesel cars by 2040 after Volvo has announced they will only sell electric and hybrid vehicles from as early as 2019. Market Research Future predicts the Autonomous Vehicle market is projected to reach USD $65.3 billion by 2027 with 26.2% CAGR during the review period of 2015-2027. All of this creates a crucial challenge for the car companies. Like, how to stay competitive on the market in a such a quick transformation? Or, what is needed to gain from this transformation? The Automotive Innovation Summit 2018 in Neckarsulm will attempt to answer this with the help of leading professionals and experts from around the world. Over the two days, at Audi Forum in Neckarsulm, Germany the summit will cover discussions, real-life case studies and workshops about the fast transforming and innovating trends in the automotive industry. This is the summit where the industry-leaders, car manufacturers, suppliers, experts and entrepreneurs meet and intimately discuss and present their ideas on the future trends in the automotive industry.
