The international DVN Workshop in China got off to a great start this morning with 250 attendees, despite the difficulty to travel in and to China right now on account of Covid restrictions. More than 30 car maker representatives are attending the event, with its rubric Innovations for New Lighting Functions.
After the thoughtful keynote from Hasco Vision’s CEO came a parade of innovations presented by speakers from Audi; Volvo; PATARC; Changan; Great Wall; Stellantis; Human Horizons; FAW, and Jidu. It is regrettable that most of the lighting community members could not be physically present because of China’s travel restrictions.
The second day of the Workshop will get started in few hours, with a presentation by GTB ex-president Geoff Draper, now DVN’s senior regulatory adviser. There will be lively lectures from Koito; Hella; Valeo; Mind; AMLS/Plastic Omnium; Hasco; Marelli AL; XingYu; Chongqing Varroc TYC, andAMS Osram.
As Wolfgang Huhn described last week, we are working to spotlight and showcase lesser-known innovative companies, today it’s Lightworks’ turn; you’ll find an interview with founder Michael Höfgen.
Do enjoy the China Workshop as you can. In the meantime, we proudly present this, the 769th DVNewsletter.
Sincerely yours,
