One vehicle. Two tracks. The same split as the name on the door.
AutoEngiTech isn’t just a name it’s the agenda. Every session on the floor sits on one side of that word or the other. This page is the full picture: why the event exists, what’s on both tracks, and who’s in the room.
WHY THIS EVENT
Not another industry expo. A working session for the people who build the vehicle.
Engineering decisions on software, silicon, and AI are made in isolation inside single companies, single teams, single meetings. No shared room exists to pressure test them against peers actually solving the same problems.
The Gap
Engineering decisions on software, silicon, and AI are currently made in isolation inside single companies, single teams, single meetings. No shared room exists to compare notes against peers solving the same problems.
The Fix
01
Clarity
02
Contacts
03
Conviction
Ten topics, drawn from live industry tension not trend reports.
Not observers. Not
intermediaries.
