Type of event:

Conference

Autonomous driving has become a relevant and broadly discussed topic in Japan as well as France and Germany.
However, political and corporate strategies on how to implement autonomous driving, regulatory policies in both national, and, in the cases of Germany and France, EU levels, and attitudes towards autonomous driving as well as the perception of risks and chances in each society might differ to a large extent. The French-German Dialogue on Japan will discuss this topic by bringing together trilateral perspectives, research findings, and hands-on experience by panelists from academia and business.

The first session on "Regulating Autonomous Driving" will focus on corporate strategies and the perspective of automobile manufacturers in regard to regulatory issues and policies concerning the development and implementation of autonomous driving.

The second session on "Autonomous Driving and Society" will compare the reception and acceptance of autonomous driving in all three societies: What attitudes and preferences can be found in the Japanese, French and German public? What chances and risks do citizens perceive in regard to autonomous driving?

The event will be held in English.

Urgence climatique, urgence industrielle, urgence sociale : un tiercé à remettre dans l’ordre (15/09/2019)

Submitted by Géry Deffontaines, GERPISA on Mon, 09/16/2019 - 13:00

La chronique hébdomadaire de Bernard Jullien Ancien directeur du Gerpisa, maître de conférences en économie à l'Université de Bordeaux et conseiller scientifique de la Chaire de Management des Réseaux du Groupe Essca.

L’urgence dans laquelle l’industrie automobile se trouve fin 2019 donne lieu, à Francfort et ailleurs, à un jeu d’influence complexe où chacun adosse ses propos à une cause a priori légitime pour contrer une autre partie prenante qui en invoque une autre.

L’UE a, il y a un an, fondé ses injonctions sur l’urgence climatique. Les constructeurs comme les états sont sensibles à l’urgence financière et souhaiteraient que les ventes de SUV puissent continuer de générer le cash qui permet de combler les pertes sur les VE pour les uns et de financer les primes à l’achat des dits véhicules pour les autres.

Climate emergency, industrial emergency, social emergency: how to arrange the three-way race? (2019/09/15)

Submitted by Géry Deffontaines, GERPISA on Mon, 09/16/2019 - 13:00

The state of emergency in which the automotive industry finds itself at the end of 2019 gives rise, in Frankfurt and elsewhere, to a complex interplay of influence in which everyone backs their words to a cause that is a priori legitimate to counter another stakeholder who invokes another one.

A year ago, the EU based its injunctions on the climate emergency. Car manufacturers and governments alike are sensitive to the financial imperative and would like SUV sales to be able to continue to generate cash to cover losses on EVs for the former, and to finance inventives for the latter .
Trade unions, SMEs and regions that rely on automobile clusters to keep jobs are seeing factories weakened and the number of jobs destroyed in the automotive sector. They fear that those created by electrification will not be of much concern to them.
