Lives are being shaped by the rapid advancements in technology. In order to maintain a competitive edge in the marketplace, it is critical to stay ahead of the curve and next disruption. To adapt, industries have had to integrate enhanced and safer technology into the manufacturing of their products and the products themselves – the automotive industry is a testament to this.
Building on the enormous success of the 2016 and 2017, the 2018 AutoTech Symposium is an opportunity to learn about the future of the automotive industry. As one of the only events of its kind in North America, the agenda will focus on Ontario’s capabilities in the auto industry, specifically on the smarter, safer, and connected technologies Canadian companies are developing to cause the next shift in the automotive and mobility sectors.
