“Picking up on trends and technologies in order to quickly develop products further or develop entirely new ones and then strategically position them in the market – that is the way forward for the automotive industry. The challenges to the industry posed by digitalisation and sustainability can only be successfully mastered if carried out in a continuous manner and in consistent cooperation between all those involved. The exhibitors at the IZB will provide important points of departure for this,” explains Josef Schulze Sutthoff, Head of the IZB at Wolfsburg AG.
