The transformation to sustainability is rapidly becoming a central issue - in politics, business, and society. Digitization can be the main enabler for ""creating"" this transformation, which is crucial for all of us. A new industry branch is emerging from the symbiosis of these two topics: GREEN TECH. The companies active in this branch aim to conquer the market with the help of digital technologies through sustainable products and services. German companies are at the forefront - but how capable are they of competing on an international level? Are the political framework conditions right? We at MHP are not only shedding light on this in a joint study with Reutlingen University, but also in this panel. The panel will include experts from various fields - We invite you to look forward to a wide range of perspectives on the German green tech industry.

The battery is at the heart of future mobility – it enables emission-free mobility, but it also brings its own challenges. This is because the resources for building lithium-ion batteries are limited – at the same time, they are predestined for innovative approaches to the circular economy. For this reason, topics such as recycling, or second-life management of batteries are increasingly coming into focus. In this presentation, we will show which technical and economic aspects need to be taken into account. You will also learn how digital twins can be used to monitor and optimize a battery – including static and dynamic data over the entire life cycle as well as permanent monitoring of the state of health and new predictive maintenance options. Update your expertise on electromobility. Mobility Services Stage M | 03:10 - 03:30 pm | Impulse Session

Current global crises are placing enormous demands on industrial companies with their complex, international, just-in-time supply chains – the automotive industry in particular needs to reorient itself. In addition to the relocation of production sites, the leading players are also driving forward reconfigurable, highly digitized supply chains and are increasingly focusing on transforming the entire automotive ecosystem. One of the critical factors for success is a cross-company exchange of production and supply chain data on digital platforms to achieve the most holistic approach possible. The automotive industry is tackling this issue. As part of the Catena-X initiative, it is developing harmonized standards and solutions for the exchange of information throughout the value chain. This will create the right conditions to prepare us for future challenges such as decarbonization and a circular economy. However, the new risks must also be considered for every opportunity – especially in terms of cyber security. So what tips the balance? Risks or opportunities? In this panel discussion, we talk to the top experts in the industry about exactly this. Join us as we discuss the future of the supply chain.
