Navigating the future of mobility: Infineon‘s perspective on digital transformation, decarbonization, and supply chain resilience in the face of geopolitical adversity

By Dr. Thomas Kaufmann, Executive Vice President & COO, Automotive Division, Infineon

 

The automotive industry is undergoing a profound transformation, driven by the rise of software-defined vehicles, electrification, and decarbonization. Dependable electronics are crucial to solve the energy challenges of our time and shape the digital transformation. This is why Infineon is committed to actively driving decarbonization and digitalization.

This keynote will explore the key trends shaping the future of mobility, including the growing importance of decarbonization, where customers are increasingly demanding associated CO2 data and other layers of product information. Infineon is addressing this need through Industry 4.0 concept of horizontal integration.

The current geopolitical situation presents both challenges and opportunities for the industry. Infineon’s strategy for navigating these complexities is built on its “Multi-Site Manufacturing” approach, which enables flexibility, supply chain resilience, and faster response times to changing market conditions.

Infineon’s focus on delivering innovative solutions that meet the evolving demands of the automotive industry will be highlighted. Through this keynote, Thomas Kaufmann will provide a comprehensive overview of the mega trends shaping the future of mobility, its influence on semiconductor manufacturing and Infineon‘s digital transformation.
