AI in the automotive industry is critically important. Generative AI, Agentic AI, customer support, in-car assistants. Join Autotech Council members, OEMs, automotive suppliers, mobility startups and VCs as we focus on the non-self-driving use cases of AI, and bring the startups making waves.
This is a public meeting for Autotech Council members and open to industry professionals from the wider automotive innovation ecosystem.
Members gather monthly to review new technologies and a handful of new companies and solutions coming out of the mobility industry's entrepreneurial community across the globe.
AI is rapidly transforming the automotive industry beyond autonomous driving, shifting vehicles from “software-defined” to “AI-defined” through systems that can reason, plan, and execute tasks across design, manufacturing, sales, and in-car experiences. Backed by significant investment and adoption, these practical, deployable AI applications are already reshaping the automotive value chain, moving from pilots to real-world collaboration within workflows. Our meeting will cut through the hype to showcase founders and startups delivering high-impact, non-self-driving AI solutions, offering attendees a clear view of where automotive AI is delivering value today and who is building it.
This agenda opens with a fireside chat with Ishwor Bhusal at Nissan Motors to take an inside look on how AI is applied and deployed across different functions and how AI has revolutionized operation efficiency, followed by a panel discussion with Jan Rüdiger at Elektrobit Americas Inc, Kiran Cherukimilli at Valeo and Stefano Marzani at Amazon Web Services, looking at the opportunities for conversational AI, and as with all Autotech Council meetings includes demo and meeting tables, plenty of time for networking and of course startup pitches and technology demos.
