Dates: 12-13 November 2018
Location: Berlin
Organizer: Federal Ministry of Economics and Energy (BMWi)

Electromobility is on the rise worldwide. It is a future core element of new sustainable mobility and an important chapter in the process of energy transition. The challenges for all affected industries are enormous: technical progress is rapid and involves extremely short innovation cycles. Traditional value chains are disruptively transformed. User acceptance must be improved - in favor of clean air in cities and villages. The effects of economic policies of crucial partner countries and new, serious international competitors, however, make structural change in the automotive industry even more difficult.

Discuss with other stakeholders the implications of these processes  for the industrial location of Germany and cooperation within the EU as well as with international partners.

The "Networking Conference Electromobility 2018" offers German and international stakeholders from industry, research and politics a forum for networking, exchange of expertise and the initiation of cross-border cooperation. Top-class keynote speeches, podium discussions and expert forums as well as an exhibition of exhibits from research and development offer a context for comprehensive networking opportunities.

The "Electromobility Conference 2018" takes place
at the hotel "andel's by Vienna House Berlin"
Landsberger Allee 106, 10369 Berlin.
The event starts at 12:30
