With new ways on mobility\, climate change and strong worlwilde competition\, Automotive industry has to be reinvented.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis is impacting also our automotive lighting community and our supply chains. \nExterior lighting has never been in such a big role at IAA Munich last September\, with new technology release\, new design language and strong marketing usage. \nWe have now to bring an holitistic approach to lighting. It is not only safety and design. \nIt is time to think together about the next step. What will be our automotive lighting world in 10 years? \nFor this purpose\, the agenda will include different sessions: \n\nLighting and design\nInnovative technology including EE to support\nSimulation and AI : how to accelerate and change our way of working\nSustainability and how to move forward\nNiche market and special needs (2W\, trucks\, sport cars\, luxury cars)\n\nIncluding round tables and award ceremony. \nFor the first time we are inviting design schools to give us input and vision and we have defined a Jury to select the best design proposal. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis Munich DVN Workshop will bring together more than 500 participants from all over the world.

SUMMARY:DVN Shanghai Lighting Workshop 2025
DESCRIPTION:Download event flyer\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe 37th DVN Lighting workshop will take place in Shanghai on October 29-30\, 2025. \nDVN are back in China for the 8th time. This past April\, we witnessed the impressive development speed in China\, the large number of new vehicle reveals\, and the super-crowded event. Now\, six months on\, we sit down and take time\, all together\, to analyze the lighting content presented at the Shanghai auto show\, and to see what’s coming next.So the primary main anchors for the event are speed\, cost\, and technology\, and the theme is Vehicle Lighting Tech\, Cost\, & Speed in China’s Disruptive Market. \nAt the Shanghai auto show\, three lighting trends held my attention: \nPersonalization and gamification in the UX and hardware and software content of interior and exterior lighting;The need for V2X communications – ISDs\, turquoise AD lamps\, etc – especially for vehicles with L2+ or L3 ADAS and AD content;The interior-lighting shift from static solutions focused on wellbeing to sequential solutions to communicate with the driver.Based on these observations\, we are organizing an event at a conference centre where we will have exhibition space\, including a dark room for interior and exterior lighting demonstrations. The vehicle exhibition will be extended\, too\, with more vehicles to see and analyze. \nSessions will include safety\, lighting performance\, light source development (including LED\, mini- and microLED\, OLED\, and laser)\, EE architecture\, regulation\, car body lighting (charging lamps\, lit bumpers · grilles · logos\, ISDs\, road projections)\, lighting for design\, and – for the first time – an interior lighting session. \nYoung designers from the China Academy of Art will present their vehicle lighting design projects and describe how they have integrated lighting into the cars. They will also take part in the panel discussion about vehicle design and lighting needs. \nThis Shanghai DVN Workshop will bring together more than 500 participants from all over the world. Experts\, researchers\, managers\, designers\, engineers…and you! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeakers\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPreliminary Program\n\n\n\n\n	\n					\n				Tab 1\n			\n						\n				DAY 2\n			\n						\n				Tab 3\n			\n						\n				Tab 4\n			\n						\n				Tab 5\n			\n				\n	\n		\n\n	\n\n\n08:00 am: Registration & Breakfast \n\n\n09:30 am: Opening & Welcome by DVN – Paul Henri Matha\, CEO with: \n\n\n\n\nChina Association of Automobile Manufacturers – Ye Shengji\, Chief Engineer\n\n\nBYD 13th Business Unit/Fudi Lighting – Sun Shixiang\, Vice General Manager\n\n\n\n\n09:45 am: Keynote speeches \n\n\n\n\nAutomobility Limited – Bill Russo\, Founder & CEO: How China’s Digital Ecosystems are Re-Shaping Intelligent Connectivity\n\n\nTrendforce – Joanne Wu\, Assistant Vice President: 2025 Micro/Mini LED Automotive Lighting and Display Trend (Incl.
