Having had several years of success in Kerry, Electronomous, Ireland's annual conference on all things automotive, electrified, and autonomous, is moving to a new home in Dublin for 2020. Instead of the National Exhibition Centre in Killarney, this year the conference will run - over May 21st and 22nd - at Weston Airport, near Dublin.
World class speakers
The summit sees world class speakers such as Dell Technologies, Group Renault, BMW Group, Roborace and The United Nations Economic Commission for Europe, discuss advancements in automotive AI, autonomy, and electrification in the car and mobility sectors.
"The growing eco-system of companies forging a pathway within the tech, automotive and mobility space in Ireland might be surprising to some but there are many Irish companies doing business with some of the world's biggest OEM's and mobility shapeshifters. To have many of these International companies attending, speaking and exhibiting at the event presents a real opportunity to gain some facetime in order to talk about their company or showcase their technology," says Keith Whelan, Event Director at Electronomous.
Support from Enterprise Ireland
"Enterprise Ireland is excited to support this event, which showcases the future of mobility and innovations from globally-leading companies. Ireland is in a unique position to excel in the connected and autonomous vehicle sector, through a diverse cluster of companies, universities and research centres offering technical, industrial and engineering expertise and solutions. In 2019, we had more than 20 Irish companies in attendance at the conference and welcomed international delegates and industry experts from Silicon Valley, Germany and Dubai," added Sara Hill, SVP Advanced Technologies at Enterprise Ireland's office in San Francisco.
Live demonstrations
"Electronomous is bringing together companies at the cutting edge of mobility technology and Roborace, the World's first autonomous racing competition, is looking forward to be a part of that conversation," explains Bryn Balcombe, Chief Strategy Officer at Roborace and founder of the Autonomous Drivers Alliance (ADA).
MobilityX, the autonomous vehicles development group, will once again be joining in as a co-host of the event, bringing with it a whole host of delegates and speakers. The move to Weston also means that more in the way of live, moving, vehicle demonstrations can take place.
