The buzz: “The convergence of cars and computers is blurring the traditional geographical boundaries of both industries.

Tech companies…sensing an industry that's ripe for disruption…are heading to Detroit to better understand the auto industry and get their software embedded into cars” (businessinsider.com). The automotive industry is experiencing unprecedented change from innovative technologies to consumer preferences. Future city transportation will be dominated by automated, connected, electric, and shared (ACES) vehicles (Center for Automotive Research, 2018). What are the obstacles and opportunities for these U.S. automotive epicenters? The experts speak. Carla Bailo, CAR: “Innovate or die” (Peter Drucker). John Leney, SAP: “It’s fun to do the impossible” (Walt Disney). Join us for CARS: Bridging Detroit and Silicon Valley.
