EUCAR, the European Council for automotive R&D, is organising the Conference “Ready for Horizon 2020! The strategic pillars of automotive research & innovation” in Brussels.

At the Conference, after an introduction from the EUCAR Chairman, three sessions will focus on the EUCAR Strategic Pillars: “Safe & Integrated Mobility”; “Sustainable Propulsion”; and “Affordability & Competitiveness”.

Each Pillar will be illustrated by an overview of the challenges and opportunities from a EUCAR Council member, presentation of a key R&I project, followed by discussion of the future framework and strategies for research with senior policymakers and stakeholders in European R&I. These will be followed by a panel discussion on Horizon 2020.
