In this immersive event, esteemed guests from automotive finance, leasing and fleet & mobility management companies converged to unlock the secrets of the virtual automotive experience. Brace yourself for an exhilarating exploration of the transformative power of technology reshaping the sector’s essence.
Throughout the forum, attendees were inspired by visionary speakers and engaging panel discussions. Professor Jamie Anderson, stand-up strategist, kicked-off the day by emphasizing the importance of creative thinking as a strategy to navigate change successfully. He particularly challenged the fixed thinking patterns ingrained by our educational systems. The adjacent expert panel highlighted the need for a culture that fosters innovation and collaboration, avoiding companies to be led by egos. Inviting every individual to contribute and work together for meaningful change.
Another topic at the forum covered the challenges and opportunities of Mobility as a Service (MAAS) in a data and AI-driven ecosystem. Both the speaker and audience expressed confidence in the industry’s ability to overcome obstacles and deliver comprehensive MAAS solutions. A statement fully acknowledged by speaker Guido Lemeire, a petrol head converted into a MAAS advocate. Additionally, the audience was submerged in the metaverse of AI predicted experiences, exploring scenarios that reimagine car configurations, dealership processes, the integration of banking and financing into the mobility landscape and the exciting possibilities of non-linear usage of mobility.
An exciting milestone of the event was the introduction of Sofico’s Miles Community.
