Automotive & Transportation Solutions: Paving the road for your success

The automotive industry has changed a lot over the last few years, especially due to the progress of digital transformation like the tremendous speed of IT integration into the car. Today the industry is characterized by a rapidly increasing speed of innovation, which is driven by consumers’ desire for new features such as upgradeable cars, shared mobility and on-demand services. Market disruption is further fuelled by the emergence of new business models and market players – such as Uber and Google – changing the competitive landscape and diversifying the automotive revenue stream. These are just some of the reasons that the automotive industry is becoming more and more complex.
