Between homes and offices most of us spend large amounts of time commuting but a growing awareness of transportation’s ecological impact has triggered a shift towards public and shared transport. Automobiles continue to play a significant role in society, but one that is changing. The entire automotive industry is witnessing massive disruption throughout the value chain.
Digital technology in particular is proving the lever that is shifting the gears of transformation and driving ever more innovative customer experiences. In this session we will understand the major trends driving the automotive industry and how creating and being a part of a pivotal ecosystem experience, is critical for shared success.

REVOLUTION
IS IN THE MAKING
We see key challenges emerging
• Consumers are shifting from car ownership towards shared
mobility models
• Urban infrastructure in emerging economies and increased
adoption of eco-friendly practices
• Emerging digital technologies and business models disrupting
the industry, driven by incumbents, start-ups and technology
players
Ride-sharing alone is projected to be a $ 53.8 Billion market
by 2023 in Asia-Pacific.

8. NEXT WAVE OF INNOVATION
The transformation based on digital technologies, triggered by the auto industry will go beyond
the automobile and embed itself in the larger day-to-day experiences that an individual engages
in, with frictionless movement from one aspect of the individual’s daily routine to another.
It necessitates the need to have open communications with partners, competitors and customers
alike, and look at new venues of collaboration in a structured manner.
In this paper we have set out a framework to partner, collaborate and innovate to effectively drive
transformative experiences for your customers.

9. WHAT
CONSTITUTES
AN ECOSYSTEM?
• An environment where customers can move from one service or
product to another seamlessly
• Driven by a network effect, where more customers
lead to more providers and vice-versa, creating a virtuous cycle
• Characterized either by formal and contractual partnerships
between participants or informally througha platform play where
all participants are equally present
• Customer sees value greater thanthe sum of the parts

11. A FRAMEWORK
TO DEFINE YOUR
ECOSYSTEM The first step in building an ecosystem is to identify the
over- arching Experience(s) that your target customers
seek, which your brand can fulfil through complementary
partners
Our framework to envision an ecosystem involves
• identifying partners for strategic differentiation,
market outreach, foundational needs
• a platform to bring them together, with your brand
playing a central, curative role

22. IF YOU CAN’T

OEMs need start-ups to innovate and build on their ongoing
experience transformation engagements.
Start-ups need access to capital and large marketing budgets,
and access to your customer base, through you
Customers benefit the most through this experience-driven
ecosystem.
The last few years have seen automotive OEMs and suppliers
proactively engage with start-ups through multiple models, including
hackathons, incubators and collaboration zones, leading up to
acquisitions and exclusive partnerships

24. LEVERAGE
SENSORS AND
IOT TO CREATE
NEW EXPERIENCES
Sensors are being increasingly infused into the car, by both
OEMs and suppliers
In 2016, Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) partnered with
CARFIT that combines automotive sciences, NVH and machine
learning. They developed puck-shaped devices that attach to the
steering wheel, brakes and wheels, analysing NVH and sending
diagnosis to an app.
Suppliers should identify the role data originating from their
components, can play in the end-to-end customer experience.

Can you find ways of collaboration with your customers, internal design teams, and those of your
suppliers, for the in-car experience building??

26. THE EXPERIENCE
JOURNEY GOES
BEYOND THE DRIVE
– THINK

Affectiva, a pioneer in Emotional AI, collaborated with Porsche
for its Magic Moments demo.
In-car cameras detect a driver’s positive emotional state and snap
a photo. The user relives it through an app and can share it across
social media.
Your brand holds the customer permission today, and the pivotal
part of the experience journey.

27. ASK YOURSELF:
What is the end-to-end customer journey that you want to build for
your customers? Do you know the moments of truth that matter??

28. Industry playesr have to cooperate with those they compete with, to
create technical standards and protocols. This will make it easier to
drive new experiences based on data, that other services can tap
into, to further fuel innovation.
BMW, Daimler and Audi are majority owners in HERE Open
Location Platform (OLP) used for maps and location data. Its used
in turn by Garmin and Facebook to provide consumer services.
Suppliers like Bosch and Pioneer are also invested in HERE.

Cars will become a point of consumption of niche, personalized
services, on-demand. The partnerships between suppliers and
OEMs are moving to one of equals, driven partially by the
democratization of data.
Honda Dream Drive is a driver and passenger infotainment
system. A passenger app provides mixed reality games and movies
and a driver app provides the a device-less experience for restaurant
reservations, movies, fuel and parking payments from the car's
system.
Honda enabled this with Visa and Connected Travel along with
others like Atom Tickets, Chevron, Phillips 66, GrubHub.

32. ASK YOURSELF:
• What is your strategy to cope with and thrive from a never-ending cycle of change?
• Do you have a talent map of your existing landscape and a roadmap of where you want to get to?
• Are you well placed to attract new talent, upskill current talent, and retain critical skills and staff?

difference in Revenue Growth. There are seven key design dimensions of ecosystems. Four of these
play a significant role in the revenue growth of their respective companies.

means leadership teams must focus on building a strong culture

37. A McKinsey study estimates that driven by shared mobility,
connectivity services, and feature upgrades, new business
models could expand automotive revenue pools by about 30
percent, adding up to $1.5 trillion by 2030.
In our view, the ecosystem-driven experiences contribute to all
3 drivers of the estimated addition to the automotive market.

39. A WORD OF
CAUTION
• Data enables experiences in the automobile and its extensions.
Data privacy has to be respected and consent be gained as a
part of the experience
• Find the payment and commerce experience that best
resonates with your target customers
• Innovation comes with its share of risk. The true value of
innovative ideas is when they move from the design room to the
road and into the hands of your customer in rapid iterations
