Accelerate innovation to unleash next generation designs
We have entered an era of unprecedented change in the automotive industry.
Technology megatrends are gathering pace, driving to accelerate innovation. Advanced driver-assistance systems (ADASs), autonomous and electric vehicles are steering the industry in a new direction, creating new market opportunities. But the software, chips and electronics at the heart of these systems have exponentially increased the complexity and the cost of vehicle development.
As cars become computers on wheels, tech giants and start-ups have successfully disrupted the industry, making competition fierce and squeezing profit margins and development cycles.
Not only that, as consumers and governments around the world become more concerned about the climate crisis, carmakers find themselves jumping through more hoops than ever to develop more sustainable vehicles that meet stricter regulatory and homologation requirements.
With so many companies racing to develop the next generation of vehicles and respond to changing customer preferences, innovation will be the key differentiator that defines who gets ahead and who gets left behind.
