Automotive Innovation

The inaugural AutoSens China took place last week in Hefei, a short train journey from Shanghai and a burgeoning hub of automotive innovation within China. With keynotes from BMW, VW, NIO, and Momenta; VIP site visits to NIO, VW, and the Grand Union of Innovation; live and static car demos; and a buzzing exhibition hall, the premiere put AutoSens on the map as an event not to be missed. Global and local companies came together to share ideas, showcase technology, and make connections. With so much going on, it was hard to pin down the most interesting moments, but some key themes did emerge.
