Symposium Autonomous Driving
How can we achieve a breakthrough in Europe?
📅 Monday, November 25, 2024
🕙 1-6 pm
📍 Munich Urban Colab
Autonomous driving is one of the most important future prospects in the field of mobility and promises to fundamentally change the way we move. It brings many advantages, especially in public transport, where cities and municipalities have the opportunity to reduce staffing needs and at the same time improve the quality of local transport with on-demand autonomous vehicles.
While Germany is testing the first pilot projects, countries such as China and the USA are already further ahead. How can Europe close the gap and catch up?
At our symposium, we will address this challenge and discuss possible solutions as well as next necessary steps with experts from technology companies, transport providers, cities, academia and government to make autonomous driving a tangible future perspective in Europe.
As always, you can expect exciting speakers and high-profile panelists.
