The European automotive sector has long been a global leader, but its competitive position is under threat due to rapid developments in countries such as China and the United States. While these nations invest heavily in battery technology, digitalization, and new production methods, Europe must accelerate its efforts to maintain its position.
Innovation Through Collaboration
As a partner of Drive Forward 2025, RAI Vereniging will represent the interests of the mobility sector.
