AI & Data-driven Simulation Forum
10 July 2025 | Stuttgart (ARENA2036)
Vehicle manufacturers and mobility providers are navigating increasingly complex development and production landscapes - where technological disruption, societal shifts, and regulatory demands converge. At the same time, entirely new opportunities are emerging to rethink how intelligent mobility units are designed, developed, and deployed. To remain competitive in this fast-paced environment, companies must embrace intelligent virtual development and production processes and drastically shorten innovation cycles.
Although the foundations of Data Science and Artificial Intelligence have been established for over 60 years, the automotive industry is only beginning to tap into their transformative potential. A vast, previously unimagined solution space is emerging through the fusion of AI and simulation within a data-driven development ecosystem.
With this in mind, the AI & Data-Driven Simulation Forum 2025 offers a dedicated platform to explore, challenge, and advance this exciting intersection. It brings together a simulation-driven mobility community to discuss the latest research, share practical applications, and shape the future of intelligent virtual vehicle development and production.
