Every year, the international automotive community meets up at the International CTI SYMPOSIA in Germany and USA to discuss the best strategies and technologies for tomorrow’s car, busses and trucks. To reduce CO2 emissions drivetrain electrification and the use of renewable energies are in the focus. Efficiency, reliability and costs need to be optimized at the same time. CTI SYMPOSIA are premier industry meetings that cover all the key issues in depth.
The CTI SYMPOSIUM EXPO is a professional platform with unique cross-sector networking opportunities. Annually hundreds of delegates get latest updates on products and services, exhibitors show their solutions at their booths as well as during a ride & drive.

Steffen Jäger Furtwangen University, Institute for Product and Service Engineering Reducing the sound emitted by the vehicle and the noise perceived by the passengers is an essential part of the development of modern (e-)vehicles. Bearings are crucial to the transmission of vibrations within the vehicle powertrain.… Continue reading
Electric vehicles are revolutionizing the automotive industry in a way that has not been seen since the seatbelt became mandatory in 1967. Competition among OEMs is increasing and the modern day ‘race to the moon’ is underway, lead by manufacturers such as Volkswagen, Ford, GM and Volvo as they roll-out EV & hyrbid models off… Continue reading
