Keynote: The EV Transition Begins

The auto industry is now in the midst of a shift from internal combustion engine (ICE) to electric vehicle (EV) propulsion. This is the most significant change in the 100-year history of the automobile.  Investment in EVs has been substantial in the past 2 years with more than $35 billion committed to assembly and battery production in North America alone. R&D priorities are shifting to meet future market demand. Digital engineering is a key ingredient to reducing development costs and improving speed to market. Hear production forecasts for ICE and EVs through 2030, the EV investment landscape for North America, legislative policy, and the impact on R&D.
