AMA shows up at AutoTech Detroit and the Women's Automotive Network Summit as moderators, panelists, and forum hosts. Below is the full three-day schedule of sessions our team is leading — drop in to any of them, or reach out beforehand to set up a meeting on the floor.
Three days on the ground in Novi
From the closing panel at the Women's Automotive Network Summit to back-to-back forums on connectivity, ADAS, software, and the in-car experience, AMA spent the week trading notes with OEMs, suppliers, and the next wave of mobility startups. Denise Barfuss opened the run with the WAN closing panel and capped it on the AutoTech main stage moderating the UI & UX Open Q&A. Rob Minton, Dan Teeter, George Ayres, and Chip Goetzinger took the floor across ADAS, connectivity, native in-car experiences, and software — while the team kept the booth conversations going with partners from Honda, Stellantis, Nissan, GM, NVIDIA, Rivian, VW, and many more. Thanks to the AutoTech and Informa teams, our co-panelists, and everyone who stopped by Booth 622.
