At the International Auto Show (IAA) in Frankfurt, Porsche is putting a whole day full of panels, keynotes, demonstrations and discussions under the topic of the future — on and off the road. International experts, pioneers and thought leaders will be discussing not only the transformation of mobility, but also the city of tomorrow, the exploration of new worlds and the significance of future technologies such as artificial intelligence, mixed reality, and blockchain for the entire automotive industry. At the Porsche booth in Hall 3 (A12) from 12.00 pm to 7.00 pm on September 20, 2019.

How digital is mobility tomorrow?

If you believe a current BITKOM study, the car divides the Germans. Every second citizen in Germany wants to buy an electric car or even an autonomously controlled vehicle. The other half rejects them. We have come to the point where digital is worth more than many hp. Today, digital services such as integrated navigation services, driver assistance systems or intelligent services based on vehicle data are decisive criteria when Germans buy a vehicle.

Discussing tomorrow — international technology experts visit Porsche

Porsche’s “Next Visions Day” at the IAA focuses on dialogue with different perspectives and different stakeholders. Existing Porsche partners from the technology and digital scene, start-ups from the Porsche Ventures program as well as futurologists, architects and programmers will take part. All-day long, we will focus on new concepts, solutions, and applications on and off the road, always driven by digitization, automation — made for people. All visitors of the IAA are invited. Tickets can be ordered here. You can find all the information about the full 12-day program of Porsche at #IAA19 on the Porsche Newsroom.
