I personally and professionally wish you and your family, friends, and colleagues a prosperous and fulfilling 2022, brimming with new heights of creativity to keep lighting and driver-vision innovations top, front, and centre on the stage of automotive innovations.
And I extend those same good wishes to my friends and partners here at Driving Vision News, who are making such a wonderful job of it. And all the engineers at automakers and suppliers, regulators, researchers, professors, and practitioners who share their thoughts and passion while carefully respecting the boundaries of intellectual property and confidentiality. DVN wouldn’t be nearly so good without these contributions.
The main mission of DVN is to further and facilitate the interests of the lighting community. The increasing number of DVN Gold lighting company members—151 at the end of 2021 (plus 28 members of DVN Interior!); the number of Gold members overall (more than 1,200) and the number of interested lighting members (more than 2,000 others) at the end of the year, show that there is strong and increasing interest in networking, sharing ideas and technical information. Good thing that there are so many challenges in front of the lighting community at the start of the new year!
In DVN meta-news, we’re happy to announce that we’re increasing our resources in Europe, North America, China, Japan, and India to keep you fully informed and up to date on the needs of automakers and their suppliers, and on the innovative new technologies coming faster and faster.
Watch for our forthcoming presentation of the DVN team of passionate, dedicated people working tirelessly to build monthly reports and weekly DVNewsletters for you, to organise DVN Workshops and Conferences, and to build each year an indispensable, must-have DVN Study.
Onward and upward in 2022—together!
Sincerely yours,
