Event Partners
From our 2024 speakers
‘This self-driving future is a matter of when and not if. The UK is positioning itself at the forefront of this transport revolution. AVs are now a scientific fact, not fiction, and present an enormous opportunity for the UK. It will be as revolutionary as the invention of the car itself.
It can provide a more inclusive transport system and help those that cannot drive, as well as giving rural communities better access to amenities. It will also help reduce carbon and help meet net zero targets.
There is immense economic opportunity and there is no doubt that it will help secure high-quality jobs in all parts of the country.’
Deputy Speaker and Chairman for Ways and Means
‘The culture that the CAM community creates will be absolutely crucial to its success. We
will be giving stakeholders the chance to input into the questions and making sure that we’re
asking and answering the right questions in our research. We are not doing this for ourselves, we are doing this for society.’
Chairman, National Infrastructure Commission
‘We are seeing big investment and money coming into the sector. It’s more fact than fantasy now and it is being supercharged by AI. We need to be purposeful, ambitious and realistic.’
UK CAM Champion, CTO & President, Oxa
