5G Powering the Future of Mobility

All of tomorrow’s mobility concepts rely on connectivity. No autonomous car would find its way without sensors busily exchanging data. Smart cities require vehicles to communicate with each other, as well as urban infrastructure. And where would you be as a passenger without a fast Internet connection streaming music and videos right to your seat?

This DLD Summer session brings together Hildegard Müller, President of the German Association of the Automotive Industry, and Telefónica Germany CEO Markus Haas in a conversation moderated by McKinsey Germany Senior Partner Fabian Billing.
