Details

This summit is where visionary OEMs, industry shakers and challenger brands come together to scrutinize the technology, consumer and business model trends forever changing the way cars are made and sold. Now in its 8th year, one of the most highly anticipated gatherings of carmakers and their technology partners in the global automotive events calendar returns in person in The Brewery London and virtually.

Join us for 4 days of hard-hitting interviews with the biggest names in the business on the topics carmakers around the world are most concerned with, including industry decarbonization, turning the car into a source of income throughout its life; personalizing the in-car experience; producing more and better electric vehicles for lower prices; mobility in the Metaverse; optimizing battery life and, in an industry bedeviled by semiconductor and raw materials shortages, securing automotive supply chains.

Post COP26, we will also ask: what more can the industry do to ramp-up its decarbonization efforts to help keep the climate goal of 1.5°C alive?

In an era of information noise and overload, our world-class automotive journalists distil the content that counts, so that you don’t have to. Participate in riveting live conversations, find out what OEMs are doing today to succeed tomorrow, and join peer-to-peer roundtables to expand your knowledge and your network. This is a must-attend, strategy-focused conference for anyone leading at the juncture of traditional automotive industry practice and technology-driven disruption.

Embrace change. Get there faster.
