May 11, 2022 Interview with Ola Boström, Veoneer
Ola Boström, Vice President Government & Regulatory Affairs from
Veoneer talked to Maren Finck about the future of vehicle safety:
It’s all about collaboration! The driver collaborates with the vehicle, the vehicle with other vehicles and with the infrastructure. To improve these types of collaboration, it is important to understand what leads to drivers embracing their ADAS systems instead of switching them off. They discussed the potential of driver/ in cabin monitoring and personalization of ADAS function features for the interaction between car and driver during confusing traffic situations and designed some visions for the next 20 years of vehicle safety.

Reliable since 2003
The SafetyWeek is the international meeting point for automotive safety experts and will be taking place for the 21st time in 2023. Three individual conferences on requirements, testing and the future of safe mobility are accompanied by the renowned SafetyExpo that features the leaders in safety innovation and technology.

On site & online
We are convinced that exchange and networking can only really work with a face-to-face event. But we also take into account the current conditions by digitizing everything that makes sense.
Up to date and top-class
As always, the conference is highly up-to-date and will feature top experts. This way the participants get the answers to the questions that concern them in their daily work. Of course, the changes in society and industry to the requirements of vehicle safety and the further development of automated driving will also be discussed and addressed.
