Highlights of the Autonomous Vehicle Technology World Expo 2018

The Autonomous Vehicle Technology World Expo brings together the world’s leading engineers in the field of autonomous research, testing, development, manufacturing, designing and more. VHR have had the great opportunity of meeting with exhibitors throughout the expo.

An eventful day of business engagements yesterday was followed by dinner celebrations in the evening, in the beautiful town of Esslingen in southern Germany. The VHR Automotive and Motorsport team rested on the town’s river bank to soak up an amazing atmosphere in traditional, German spirit.

Meeting with customers throughout the evening, VHR were able to relay the events of the week with them and enjoy exciting talks about future prospects.

The Expo at the Messe in Stuttgart hosts three dedicated conferences that focus on: software development, interior design and technology possibilities, as well as how to test and develop autonomous vehicles.

The Autonomous Vehicle Technology World Expo congregates pioneering, handpicked businesses that work with autonomous vehicle technologies. After roaming the halls and engaging with multiple exhibitors, such as Velodyne LiDAR, Siemens PLM, PTV Group, Ouster, NIRA Dynamics and ESI, VHR were most impressed with StreetDrone’s display and presence:

StreetDrone: an ambitious self-driving start-up company based in the UK. Their stand is complete with a bright green model of an autonomous car, creating an attractive, eye-catching display.

StreetDrone enable the next generation of engineers the opportunity to be involved in what is one of the most exciting sectors in ground-breaking technology today. Simply put, StreetDrone allows businesses the chance to focus on their own company’s development goals without having to worry about the cost and complication of vehicle hardware and systems engineering; this is made possible by providing their clients a data management and functional safety system.

VHR's Motorsport Recruitment Consultant and ex-professional motorsport racer, Max Snegirev, comments on the success of the expo:

“The Autonomous Vehicle Expo is a great opportunity to gain insight into the latest trends that are thriving in such fast paced industry. Cutting-edge technology and continuous progress are key factors to the success of every start-up business, therefore it’s fantastic to see how the automotive and tech industries are merging, creating great synergies that will determine the future of mobility.”

“VHR’s stand has been attracting more individuals from around the world today; we’ve met people from countries such as Singapore, UAE, Poland, US, Canada and many more. It’s a great chance to meet industry leaders that want to learn more about the services VHR provides. Our aim for this exhibition is to meet as many candidates as possible, present them with our amazing job opportunities in the market they wish to work in, as well as discuss our world-class services with potential clients – it’s going very well so far!”
