The automotive and supplier industry at a turning point: between electromobility and digitalization
Technological and social developments such as electromobility, digitalization and sustainability are setting the pace for the German automotive industry along the entire value chain.
The major manufacturers such as Mercedes-Benz, BMW and Volkswagen are not tackling the transformation of the industry alone - they are relying heavily on the support of suppliers who want to expand their market power with their own developments and products.
