A Big Tech Mindset is Critical to Seize Opportunities in a Rapidly Evolving Automotive Industry

Guest post by Deepak Chaudhari, Country Head at TCS Ireland. The automotive sector is the top investor in research and development (R&D) in the EU, spending more than €59 billion on innovation per year. While Mercedes, VW, Volvo, and Bosch are the biggest European investors in R&D, the EU's share of companies in the global top 2,500 R&D spenders has been declining over time. Today, the automotive sector is at a pivotal moment. Software is increasingly being embedded into vehicles, and automakers are prioritising software innovation as much as traditional engineering. This rapid advancement towards software-defined vehicles (SDVs) is blurring the lines between tech and auto. This presents an opportunity for automotive players in Europe to move beyond their role as vehicle manufacturers and become high-tech technology companies. By using their significant investment in research and development to launch new revenue streams faster and smarter, they can create a competitive advantage. Driving mobility with Generative AI Automakers can leap ahead by investing and innovating in Generative AI to dramatically enhance productivity and in-vehicle customer experience and reduce time-to-market. From analysing vast amounts of data for autonomous vehicle development to enabling seamless software updates, AI is poised to touch every aspect of the automotive value chain. Generative AI, in particular, will allow carmakers to create a hyper-personalised and curated experience for their customers. By 2030, it is estimated that the AI industry will be investing £59.4 billion for the automotive industry alone. This is a 20-fold increase in the next seven years over what the industry is spending today. European manufacturers could choose to lead this investment. Closing the talent gap Yet, the journey towards this transformation isn't without challenges. One of the most pressing is the talent shortage. As manufacturers shift their focus from a 'one-time sale' to curating customer experience 'for life', the auto industry is missing crucial talent to execute this type of customer longevity. It requires talent with coding skills who can create digital, connected and mobility experiences, autonomous vehicles, SDVs (Software-Defined Vehicles), multi-modal infrastructure, and smart city integrations. Graduates skilled in software development or AI tend to gravitate toward Big Tech companies, drawn by the allure of Silicon Valley and its high salaries, flexible cultures, and innovative work environments. However, the recent economic instability in Big Tech has created a unique opportunity for the auto sector to reposition itself as a sought-after career path. To attract more Gen Z developers, automakers must emphasise meaningful work, sustainability, and competitive benefits. Traditional automaker cultures - hierarchical, process-driven, and slow to change - must evolve to become innovation-driven cultures to meet the expectations of today's workforce. Some European manufacturers have already made bold moves to recruit top-tier talent from outside their core competencies. Mercedes-Benz created 3,000 new jobs in the field of software development, with 1,000 of these based at the company's new integrative competence centre for electric and electrified drives and digitalisation - the "Mercedes-Benz Electric Software Hub. Also, Jaguar Land Rover announced that it planned to hire hundreds of engineers to help develop electric cars and looked specifically at laid-off tech workers. Volkswagen engaged in a joint venture with software startup Rivian to up its EV digital technology - and strengthened its in-house software arm Cariad with Rivian experts. These hires reflect a broader strategy: automakers are expanding beyond vehicles to build ecosystems of services. Seamless EV charging, virtual vehicle assistants, and connected customer experiences are no longer nice-to-haves; they are central to future growth. By hiring from Big Tech, manufacturers are fast-tra...

Mit jeder weiteren Bilanzpressekonferenz wird momentan der Club der Minus-30-Prozenter immer größer: Nachdem Volkswagen und Mercedes schon massive Gewinneinbrüche zu vermelden hatten, gehen auch bei BMW gut 37 Prozent der Profite flöten. Die Gründe sind bekannt: mieses China-Geschäft, schwacher E-Auto-Absatz usw. Doch ist die Situation für die deutsche Auto-Garde wirklich so düster oder gibt es Anlass für Optimismus? Den scheint es bei VWs einstigem Software-Prestigeprojekt Cariad wohl eher nicht zu geben. 30 Prozent der Entwickler-Belegschaft muss bis Ende 2025 gehen, immer mehr Entwicklungsumfänge werden auf Kooperationen mit externen Partnern wie Rivian oder Xpeng verlagert.

Russell Howard’s Wonderbox

I tell you what's fun to listen to: someone who loves cake, talking passionately about cake. Griefcast's Cariad Lloyd sits with Russell and waxes lyrical about Pavlova and wider cakes. There's more! We get all down and dirty with the Moomins and then there's a weird bit where Cariad and Russell start acting out passages from Labyrinth. Which music star was originally slated to play Jareth? It wasn't Bowie… the answer lies in this terrific episode. Cariad talked in the podcast about her book, the Christmas Wish-tastrophe, and that is available now, and if you know an 11-14 year old just get them this for Christmas. Then that one is done, another one off your list. They will read and enjoy it.  You can get that book at your local independent bookshop, or google the name of the book and choose an independent book provider online. You can do this! Don't just default to the monolithic behemoths! Cariad's regular podcast is Griefcast, where she talks to all manner of people about the various ways people deal with life when things are tough. Cariad is an absolutely incredible host and it's a wonderful podcast, whether you yourself are struggling or not. Check it out HERE.  In this week's Patreon show of Five Brilliant Questions, Cariad answered some deep knowledge questions about Gondor (It's Lord of the Rings apparently. I have no idea). She also reveals what kind of hat she would be (as always, really probing questions from you guys) and Russell has a crisis about hat-wearing in general.  Go to: patreon.com/RussellHoward to get involved. Looking forward to seeing you there!  And that faint glugging noise means our Bathysphere has reached the surface of the water and our underwater journey through the Great Sea of Blurb has come to an end. Let us make our soggy way into the decompression chamber and talk about all the magnificent words we saw over a lovely biscuit and a cup of tea.  See you next week. Don't leave your Christmas shopping until the last minute. This time of year is busy enough without having to hate yourself for being disorganised too.

They piggyback off this BYD discussion to also talk about the rumor that BYD will be entering the Canadian market which moves into a broader discussion on BYD and why they are the likeliest EV company to succeed long-term. Lei then moves into a discussion on how companies have begun to lay off staff at the tier 1s. The podcast ends with a deep dive on how the Rivian VW Group tie-up could lead to VW Group abandoning Cariad and a deeper discussion on how Stellantis and VW may have too many brands to manage. Tu also discusses the WSJ post about Tesla FSD in the US and how there's a lack of transparency in the US on whether or not it's causing the accidents that Tesla vehicles are involved in.
