Digitalization - April 8th
How can digitalization drive sustainable and competitive mobility by 2035? On Day 1 of Drive Forward 2025, we explore AI, industrial policy, and regulations shaping the future.
Gilles Gallee, Director Autonomous Vehicle Simulation Solutions at Ansys, will participate in the Panel Discussion ''Digital on the road'' in the morning, and give a presentation on Simulation Environments during the first Deep Dives Session in the afternoon.
Decarbonization - April 9th
How can Europe’s car industry stay competitive while moving toward climate-neutral mobility? A key question is: what is the right pace for decarbonization—should we speed up or slow down to avoid disrupting the sector?
On Day 2 of Drive Forward 2025, we explore this balance, looking at key innovations in zero-emission vehicles, energy storage, and circular production.
Join European visionaries, industry leaders, policymakers, and researchers for a unique opportunity to explore the future of mobility through:
- Presentations by top international experts.
- Interactive panels on critical topics.
- Deep dive into the latest developments and trends.
- Live demonstrations showcasing innovation in action.
