In case you didn't attend last year, the 2024 cyber security, connected vehicles and SDV conferences were described as 'first-class', with the largest number of OEM attendees that delegates had seen at any conference that year. We are once again committed to pulling out all the stops to give the industry an event experience like never before, and one they won't find anywhere else.

Two Razor-Focused Conference Tracks Taking Place Simultaneously
  1. Automotive Cyber Security Track
  2. SDV & Vehicle Connectivity Track
(Attend one focused event or roam freely between both tracks and mix-and-match agenda sessions)

We welcome vehicle manufacturers, suppliers, thought-leaders, technology companies, insurance providers and other stakeholders to Berlin, Germany in November 2025, with the objective of giving attendees the opportunity to share new ideas, challenge existing perspectives & take actionable intelligence back to their organisations to implement it immediately.

With the Automotive Cyber Security, Connectivity & SDV Week 2025, we're staying true to our ethos of delivering strategic intelligence and the highest-quality technical case studies on only the most pressing challenges facing the industry, today and in the near future. Download the 2025 agenda to view this year's themes, focusing on solving actual technical challenges, discussion on strategic topics previously unexplored plus breakout sessions & workstreams designed to promote collaboration and idea-sharing.

Take a pause from daily activities; come and look at what the industry and your counterparts are doing. Go into 2026 feeling more informed & more prepared than when you arrive at Automotive Cyber Security, Connectivity & SDV Week 2025.
