“We are extremely excited to return to an in-person #event at the #palaceoffinearts in #sanfrancisco with a distinguished roster of speakers for the MIF addressing this year’s theme of ‘Orchestrating Ecosystems’ for human-centered #mobility,” said #henrychung, SVP and Head of #hyundaicradlesiliconvalley. “With so many aspects of #mobility innovation being dynamically affected by global events and economics, we are all looking forward to hearing how open innovation and other forms of collaboration can be best leveraged by our broad array of #mobility innovation experts, covering government, corporations, universities, startups and investors.”

MIF 2022 will begin with an impactful keynote speech from David Hochschild, Chair of the California Energy Commission and will follow with in-person discussions held between #mobility industry leaders, innovators, startups, and investors from both the public and private sectors.

The #event will include a series of #talks with diverse topics such as ‘Taking action: the NorCAL ZERO project’, ‘Preparing the next manufacturing’, ‘Scaling driverless technology, ‘Co-design and create circularity,’ and ‘The next era of mobility’.
