Small Olympia Park, Munich, Germany
SOCIAL COCKTAIL & DINNER • CONFERENCE • PANEL DISCUSSION • AWARD CEREMONY • EXPO
This is impacting also our automotive lighting community and our supply chains.
Exterior lighting has never been in such a big role at IAA Munich last September, with new technology release, new design language and strong marketing usage.
We have now to bring an holitistic approach to lighting. It is not only safety and design.
It is time to think together about the next step. What will be our automotive lighting world in 10 years?
For this purpose, the agenda will include different sessions:
- Lighting and design
- Innovative technology including EE to support
- Simulation and AI : how to accelerate and change our way of working
- Sustainability and how to move forward
- Niche market and special needs (2W, trucks, sport cars, luxury cars)
Including round tables and award ceremony.
For the first time we are inviting design schools to give us input and vision and we have defined a Jury to select the best design proposal.

This Munich DVN Workshop will bring together more than 500 participants from all over the world. Experts, researchers, managers, designers, engineers…and you!
