Creating a Marketplace for Digital Mobility and Transportation in the Automotive Industry
Due to building security at the venue, please register by end of day Wednesday, July 26, 2018. Please also remember to bring a government-issued ID for entry (like a driver's license).
The IEEE Vehicular Technology Society Chicago chapter will have its second meeting of the year this summer. The topic for this meeting is on Creating a Marketplace for Digital Mobility and Transportation in Automotive Industry. We will also talk about the forthcoming flagship conference for the IEEE Vehicular Technology Society, which is the IEEE Vehicular Technology Conference which is being held in Chicago from August 27 to 30, 2018. For the meeting, we will have two talks. The first is about distributed ledger technology in the automotive industry, and the second is the state of the industry in autonomous vehicles in Illinois.

Joe Renz of New Mobility Lab
Distributed Ledger Technology in Automotive
The digital transformation of mobility and transportation has far reaching implications for consumers, industry and the public sector. Mobility is critical to economic and social development and must therefore be accessible and affordable to everyone. Driverless vehicles promise a leap in productivity, but at the same time threaten the industrial base and related jobs in view of digital business models, automation and new forms of ownership. At the same time, the digital transformation promises a future where mobility is not only sustainable and zero emission, but shared and available on demand in a highly customized fashion. Such personalization of mobility services rely on data and the ability to translate such data into products and services that consumer’s value. Data has become the ultimate control point and is at the center of emerging business models. What are the future business models in this emerging ecosystem of mobility?
Distributed Ledger Technology promises a future where personal identities and data can be protected. At the same time, identities and trust protocols enable a true P2P sharing economy without impacting privacy. It may enable data sharing across value chain participants in a way that puts consumers and commons in control of data and how it may be shared (and in exchange for what). Ultimately, the Distributed Ledgers promise to power not only humans, but autonomous fleets that create a self-governing marketplace of mobility and transportation services.
Biography:
Jochen (Joe) is an Electronics Engineer from Stuttgart, Germany (Home of Mercedes, Bosch, Porsche, etc), and now resides in Chicago. After a 20-year corporate IT career at CA Technologies he co-founded New Mobility Lab in June 2016. Simply put, cars and IT are in his blood.
Joe understands the car as an important building block in the future of multi-modal mobility. However, much of disruptive innovation happens in the form of solutions around the car and in the broader mobility ecosystem - the System of Systems, where Distributed Ledger Technologies (DLT) play an instrumental role. Joe goes far beyond the car itself and takes a holistic view of the emerging smart mobility and transportation space aka New Mobility World which encompasses Connected & Autonomous Vehicles, E-Mobility, Urban Solutions, Mobility Services.
Joe advocates the opportunities DLT presents to data, mobility solutions but also to human kind in general.
