INNOVATION REVIEW ON TESTING & VALIDATION

Nothing in a car makes it to the road without passing an incredible amount of rigorous testing. December’s Council meeting introduces startups and new tech in automotive testing, simulation, and validation – from ADAS, AV, and digital twin, to sensors, data, and cross-platform integration.

Through meetings in Silicon Valley with online access for remote attendees, the Council introduces 100+ new companies and innovative technologies each year. Through monthly opportunities to pitch, demo, meet, discover, network and research, with the occasional marketing opportunity mixed in, everyone from global car brands to venture-funded startups can get involved.
