Automotive Day 2024

Automotive Day 2024

"Alternatives powertrains, a cross-sector technological opportunity ?" will be the central theme of Automotive Day 2024 in Francorchamps on 10 October.


All transport sectors, including maritime, aeronautics, or land-based, are deploying huge R&D budgets to reduce the carbon footprint of their vehicles. These sectoral efforts can be pooled across sectors to promote economies of scale.

The Walloon Region, and the province of Liège in particular, is a major logistics hub for these 3 types of transport, thanks to Liège freight airport, the autonomous river port, and the intersection of the various European highways.

This important annual event for top professionals in the automotive sector will be held in Francorchamps this autumn. The automotive industry will learn how the ongoing alternative powertrains can lead to cross-sectoral opportunities from concrete use cases.
