Agile, Electric, Connected and Sustainable: The Mobility (R)evolution Impacting Supply Chains & Logistics
Our relationship with mobility is changing. Specifically, the way in which consumers and companies perceive, acquire, and utilize vehicles.
This shift is taking place amongst a backdrop of evolving customer expectations, new market opportunities and a changing legislative landscape: advanced technology solutions are required to be personalised and available for as little as an hour to as much as a recyclable lifetime; downward pressure on price points means the total cost of ownership is improving for electric; and government policies, aligned with increasingly exacting global emissions targets and stronger consumer sentiment, are accelerating sustainable mobility.
For the automotive industry sector, this mobility revolution is driven by several key trends, each impacting logistics. Electrification and connectivity are profoundly changing the supply chain and generating vast amounts of data. Boosting supply chain resilience and agility requires supplier diversification, better risk management, and more flexibility. Sustainability introduces new suppliers to the value chain, along with the imperatives of carbon reduction and circular economy principles. Moves toward shared and digital solutions necessitate new logistics management and vehicle utilization capabilities.
Join us as we meet with leading industry and supply chain experts, analyze current and evolving trends and bring you exclusive insights into tomorrow’s opportunities, challenges and pain points. The future is agile, electric, connected and sustainable.

Fathi Tlatli: Impact of the Mobility (R)evolution on Supply Chains
The auto sector is undergoing a massive transition, with electrification, resilience, sustainability, and shared mobility driving the change. Fathi Tlatli, Global Sector President Auto-Mobility at DHL, shares how these trends are reshaping supply chains and logistics. Watch now for his insights and advice on navigating these challenges and embracing the future of mobility.
Electrification & Connectivity
As more and more consumers are buying electric vehicles they also expect greater connectivity to enhance the driving experience. How is this impacting the auto-mobility industry and what are the implications for logistics and supply chains? We look into the impact of these trends with Porsche Consulting and CATL. Meanwhile with Volvo Trucks and Mercedes Benz, we explore the challenges and opportunities that are arising with the shift towards electric vehicles in the Middle East.
Resilience & Agility
Customers demand high levels of service. Manufacturers who successfully deliver vehicles, tires and spare parts on time every time need to find ways to reduce risk and cost in the supply chain. Join us in exploring this area with the World Economic Forum, Goodyear, Everstream Analytics, as well as with DHL experts.
Sustainability
The time to decarbonize is now, as consumers and regulators across all industries demand higher standards of sustainability. The entire automotive industry is shifting towards sustainable products made with minimal CO2 emissions, while simultaneously, efforts are increasing to reduce carbon emissions in supply chains. Watch exclusive content with Volvo Trucks and Bosch on the challenge of becoming more sustainable in the auto industry.
Shared & Digital
Consumers are no longer compelled to own their cars, and this explains the growing popularity of shared mobility enabled by digitalization. Car sharing, ride hailing, and the growth of commercial fleets are increasing utilization rates and vehicle turnover. Logistics must support these changes. Dive deeper into this topic with Cox Automotive, McKinsey and DHL experts.
