Session 6
Strong location, global opportunities: Resilience and competitiveness in a changing world
The pandemic, geopolitical conflicts, and the reshaping of the global economy have posed enormous challenges for the automotive industry. Global supply chains are becoming more complex, more fragmented—and at the same time, more strategically important.
In this session, we will discuss how companies are dealing with these changes, how they are making their supply chains more resilient, and how they are minimizing risks across the value chain. This also includes the policy and regulatory environment: Which measures help companies safeguard stability and competitiveness? And what opportunities arise from the current upheavals in global trade? The focus will be on practical, actionable strategies—especially for mid-sized companies in the automotive sector.
