Panel discussion: Unlocking new dimensions of consumer experience with connected cars

For our Beyond Mobility panel discussion, we collected industry leaders and discussed the changes already in the works for the Mobility sector. Topics covered include the importance of connectivity within the vehicle, the importance of the industry to center the passenger in all things and shifting entry point for new customers to your brand.

Top key takeaways:

• The car as an additional touchpoint in an omnichannel environment
• Personalizing in-car experiences across vehicles (take your experience with you)
• Connected car services as a unique selling point for fleet managers to attract van drivers

For anyone who couldn’t attend the panel discussion in Munich, we’ve made the recording available for you to watch on demand. If you’re interested in learning more about how Valtech is helping car companies move Beyond Mobility, check out our discussion now.
