The Swiss Chamber of Commerce and Industry in Japan (SCCIJ) is pleased to co-host, together with AHK Japan and the EBC Automotive Components Committee, the joint event “Mobility’s Neural Shift – Success Stories & Strategic Debate” on September 17, 2025. Bringing together key voices from the automotive and technology sectors, the seminar will explore how artificial intelligence is transforming mobility and what this means for Tier-1 suppliers, OEMs, and tech innovators.
In collaboration with the EBC Automotive Components Committee, we are excited to invite you to our joint event “Mobility’s Neural Shift – Success Stories & Strategic Debate” on September 17th, 2025 from 16:30 – 19:30 JST at L’espace, kindly provided by the French Chamber of Commerce and Industry in Japan (CCIFJ).
Artificial intelligence is beginning to reshape every layer of the value chain – but sometimes organizations seem surprisingly resilient to change. Where are we heading and what do we need to watch out for? This seminar brings together leading practitioners to showcase concrete use-cases and to debate the road-map for Tier-1s, OEMs, and tech suppliers alike.
After a short impulse talk each, two moderated panels will open the floor to questions, before the conversation continues informally over a networking buffet.
