Eight inspiring presentations, three powerful panels and a fantastic location at DRIVE. Volkswagen Group Forum in Berlin – together with Volkswagen Group Info Services AG, we hosted the big MDS Community Event 2025. This year's motto: ‘Vehicle data in motion – pathways to a connected mobility future’
The bottom line of the day: we need to understand the value of data – it is the fuel for our shared future.
The Mobility Data Space is funded by the Federal Ministry of Transport (BMV), represented by Minister Patrick Schnieder.
