AutoTech vs. Other Automotive Tech Events: What Sets Us Apart?
When it comes to the best automotive conferences, attendees and exhibitors have no shortage of choices. From CES to IAA Mobility and MOVE America to Reuters Automotive, each event offers its own unique value. But what makes AutoTech stand out is its laser focus on connected, software-defined, and electrified vehicles—and the strategic collaboration between OEMs, suppliers, startups, and tech giants. For potential attendees, exhibitors, and investors, understanding how AutoTech compares to other major industry events can shape your 2025 calendar—and your next partnership.
AutoTech vs. CES
While CES showcases the latest in consumer technology—from smart homes to digital health—AutoTech drills deep into the connectivity-led, software-defined vehicle ecosystem. It’s less about showcasing concept cars and more about the platforms, business models, and infrastructure that will support them. AutoTech’s emphasis on collaboration between automakers, Tier 1s, and tech firms provides a level of focused networking CES can’t match.
AutoTech vs. IAA Mobility
IAA Mobility is a sprawling, multi-city experience highlighting both consumer vehicles and urban infrastructure. AutoTech, by contrast, focuses intensively on the technologies enabling next-gen mobility: SDVs, V2X, electrification, AI, cloud, and connectivity. For companies looking to form product or platform partnerships, AutoTech offers an ideal concentration of decision-makers.
AutoTech vs. MOVE America
MOVE America focuses on public transport, micromobility, and policy in the urban environment. AutoTech complements this with its emphasis on how OEMs and technology partners can bring intelligent, scalable mobility to the mass market. AutoTech dives deeper into the commercial strategies and product-level decisions driving the automotive ecosystem forward.
AutoTech vs. Reuters Automotive
Reuters Automotive delivers high-level strategic discussions and media engagement, but often skews toward legacy players and broader business forecasting. AutoTech takes a more technical and solutions-oriented approach, featuring innovation zones, pitch sessions, and hands-on workshops. It’s where deals are made and platforms are launched.
