International Congress : SIA VISION Digital 2021
- 17 & 18 MARCH 2021
- Digital Edition
SIA VISION - A SUCCESSFUL CHALLENGE
More than 320 attendees gathered virtually for the SIA VISION 2021 Conference.
The SIA VISION has been a huge challenge for all of us. Initially planned for October 2020, the pandemic forced a change of plans. But the ambition remains the same, even though the congress was shifted from an in-person event to an online event happening the 17th and 18th of Mars. So how did it work? How did we keep our targets and goals despite such a major shift?
Here is how: we carefully adjusted the time schedule of the program to allow participants all over the world to follow the congress as conveniently as possible—we started later in the morning and stopped earlier in the afternoon, from the European perspective. Finally, we made the conference in two parallel sessions.
We have enticed Marie Gautier-Melleray, the French Interministerial Delegate for Road Safety, to open the congress together with future Valeo CEO Christophe Perillat. On the second day, Stéphane Buffat, Director of Le Lab Stellantis- Renault made a retrospective of 50 years of Safety.
We also organised a panel discussion to talk about challenges, benefits, and drawbacks of sensor integration into headlamps and front ends, with four top experts: Stellantis ADAS research and innovation expert Matthieu Dabek; Valeo ADAS CTO Joachim Mathes, Volvo Cars Exterior Lighting Technical Leader Paul-Henri Matha, and Marelli Automotive Lighting's Andrea Stella, VP of Research and Development.
And—best of all—we convinced all the originally-scheduled speakers to present their lectures as expected!

- +3000 messages exchanged
