Software technology and connectivity technology are changing the value of the car: how the car is used, how it is perceived, the design philosophy and development; not to mention there will likely be an effect on the residual value and retail price of the car. Considering this, what steps should the auto industry take to maximize the potential of these advancing technologies?
This webinar will host experts working on the front line of vehicle connectivity and software and explore the latest automotive trends in 2023, advancing capabilities both inside and out the car, and how the price of the vehicle might be affected by its value being raised by software and connectivity.
This webinar is free to attend. The webinar will be conducted with simultaneous interpretation between Japanese and English meaning it is possible to attend in either language. A recording will be made available to registrants for a limited period.
