On February 20, 2025, the workshop “Drive2Transform - Shaping the future in the automotive industry” took place at TechBase Regensburg.The event, organized by the Cluster Mobility & Logistics, brought together 25 companies and institutions to develop future scenarios for the automotive industry.
The day began with a welcome from Alexander Rupprecht (Managing Director of TechBase Regensburg GmbH), followed by an insight into the Drive2Transform project from Steve Schumann (Cluster Mobility & Logistics). Prof. Dr. Thomas Groll (OTH Regensburg) then gave a presentation on the role that trends play as a success factor for companies. The keynote speech by Ulrich Haböck, ZF Group, on the topic of ‘Challenges for industry and cities in shaping the mobility of the future’ rounded off the lecture programme.
The interactive workshop, moderated by Prof. Dr. Markus Heckner (OTH Regensburg), formed the central part of the day. Scenarios for the future of mobility were jointly developed in four themed groups:
- Automated/autonomous driving - focus on ecosystems, standards and mobility data.
- Electrification - challenges and opportunities for charging infrastructure, regulatory framework conditions and sector coupling.
- Platform economy - mobility services of the future and data-driven business models
- Connectivity (V2X) - networking vehicles, infrastructure and real-time data communication.
We are delighted with the high level of interest and would like to thank all participants for their valuable contributions!
