Key Dialogue during the Industry Transformation Period: Focusing on Four Core Trends

Currently, the automotive industry is undergoing profound changes not seen in a century. The penetration of artificial intelligence technology is accelerating the evolution of trends such as autonomous driving, software defined vehicles (SDVs), and new energy transformation, while the industry is also facing challenges such as rising cost pressures, intensified global competition, and supply chain restructuring. Tao Gao, Co Director of Automotive Analysis at S&P Global Automotive Greater China, pointed out at the press conference that how to better complete the transformation of the automotive industry in the new era has become a common focus of attention for the entire industry.

The "2025 Mobility Intelligence Dialogue" series of events is a platform for thought leaders aimed at redefining the future of mobile transportation, promoting new ideas, educating and sharing insights with industry stakeholders, and influencing the next generation's mission and strategy for the automotive industry.

The purpose of this conference is to build a high-end communication platform and conduct in-depth discussions around the following four core trends:

One is the global breakthrough of new energy vehicles, covering the export pattern of new energy vehicles in China, the growth rate differences in the global pure electric (BEV) market, and the electrification process in key regions;

The second is the landing of intelligent technology, focusing on the themes of "intelligent driving equality" and "software defined cars" for advanced assisted driving. From the integration of cabin and driving, the empowerment of intelligent cockpits with large models, to industry hotspots such as software upgrades and subscription business models, we will deeply explore the opportunities and challenges of software defined cars in the context of globalization;

The third is the construction of supply chain resilience, analyzing the iteration of battery technology, the layout of charging infrastructure, and the development of the electric drive industry chain;

The fourth is the restructuring of corporate strategy, decoding the competitive logic of automotive companies from dimensions such as financial data, R&D investment, and global layout.
