Welcome to the 6th edition of IEEE SmartTech from IEEE Bangalore Section. It is being organized in partnership with NASSCOM CoE IoT, TiE Bangalore, IEEE Computer Society (Bangalore Section), IEEE Power & Energy Society (Bangalore Section), IEEE Technology and Engineering Management Society - India, and IEEE Women in Engineering (Bangalore Section). 

IEEE SmartTech 2019 continues on the overarching theme of “Digital Transformation with Cognitive Minds and Machines” from IEEE SmartTech 2018; but with a focus on “The Future of Electromobility in a Connected, Shared and Smart Ecosystem”. 

Electromobility is envisioned as a key component of the future mobility ecosystem. Urban roads are, therefore, set to see more and more electric vehicles, ranging from scooters and cars to transporters and trucks. However, this transformation in the mobility space goes far beyond just using vehicles with an electric engine. It also holds the opportunity of developing new kinds of orchestrated solutions through digital reimagination of the end-to-end value chain as part of a connected, shared, and collaborative mobility ecosystem. 

This workshop will bring together technology leaders, innovators, entrepreneurs, and thought provokers who are passionate about addressing impactful problems in the electromobility domain. Industry stalwarts and technology practitioners, together, will share their understanding on technologies and challenges for sustainable city-scale mobility in general and electromobility in specific; and how they will disrupt and impact our way of working and living.
