With the deep integration of the new-generation information technology and manufacturing technology, the entire business format and value chain system of the automobile and related industries are undergoing profound adjustment and transformation. The layout of the global automotive industry's ecology and technological innovation is being reshaped. The auto industry is ushered in a new era of cross-border integration and rebirth of business format. The strategy of a strong manufacturing country clearly raises the strategic goal of intelligent automobile industry development. By 2025, the vehicle informatization and intelligence will be gradually realized. The development of intelligent connected vehicles (ICVs) has become an important carrier for promoting the construction of a powerful transportation country, digital China and a smart society. As the world's largest auto market, China is undergoing rapid changes. Intelligence will be an inevitable trend in the promising future.

How do ICVs become really “unmanned” or “smart”? Which direction will the next step go in after unmanned driving is realized? What kind of cool and smart vehicle does the younger generation of users prefer? The answers to these questions will be decrypted at the "World Intelligent Connected Vehicles Conference" (WICV) in the near future.

In order to create an international exchange platform open to the world and promote the formation of a new ecology beneficial to the development of ICVs industry, the "World Intelligent Connected Vehicles Conference" (WICV), organized by the Beijing Municipal People's Government and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, will be held at the Beijing National Convention Center on 18th - 21st October, 2018.

The conference scale, importance of guests, depth of content, exhibitor scale, number of visitors and supporting services will all surpass similar activities, making this conference weather vane of ICVs global network remodeling and industrial upgrading. This conference will provide a high-end and in-depth interpretation of "new governance, new ecology, new products, new standards, new technologies and new models", gathering the strongest power of ICVs upstream and downstream. Now let us look at the highlights of the conference in advance.
