Technology Integration

Our objective is to support Small to Medium sized Enterprises (SMEs), with the demonstration of their connected/autonomous technology, in a fleet of 20 vehicles (Sedans, CUVs, SUVs, Transit Buses and Utility Trucks), to global original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), Tier 1 and 2  parts manufacturers, multinational enterprises (MNE) and other potential customers. The integration of the technology should help to showcase the unique offerings that the Tech can offer, both in a dynamic and static demonstration. If you are an Ontario-based SME and would like to be a part of the AVIN Demonstration Zone project, please go to submissions and complete the intake form and supplier agreement document.

In the new world of automotive, the one where ACES (Automated, Connected, Electric and Shared) is driving the global OEMs to rapidly transition and transform their business models from selling and financing vehicles to selling kilometers, services and electrons. The connectTEC Conference – The In.tel.li.gent Network aspires to bring together Canada’s Leaders in Auto, ICT, Industry and Infrastructure to discuss the challenges and identify the opportunities that lie ahead for Canadian manufacturers.

The APMA believes it’s imperative that for Canada to succeed as a future-relevant auto jurisdiction, we must be global leaders in the broader ACES and Mobility Ecosystems. The starting line is still before us, the race has begun, but the finish line has not yet been drawn.
