TECHNOLOGY SACK

Increasingly cars can connect to cellular networks, but the next step is broadband Internet access. What innovations in safety, efficiency, and infotainment will result, and how will it affect auto design? This webinar will discuss the different parties who must coordinate on product development--automakers, third-party infotainment providers, cellular networks, and government safety agencies. Attendees will hear what innovations are likely to arrive as product offerings, how they may be packaged to appeal to retail car buyers, and what benefits those buyers--and perhaps society at large--will reap from the new offerings.
