The 2025 Future of the Car Summit will convene in London the most influential players in the global automotive sector, for three days of news-making keynote interviews, lively sessions and unmissable networking opportunities. The programme will equip leaders and innovators in the automotive industry with the knowledge and networks necessary to steer their organisations towards a sustainable and technologically progressive future.
