Riding Blue Oceans of the future TIC markets
How will the future of the global automotive industry look like? If the electrification of the powertrain will be one of its crucial drivers, will this development open up new white spots for the testing, inspection and certification (short TIC) players?

What are the potentials of Industry 4.0 for the TIC market? What potentials do the newest technologies, like big data, analytics, and especially artificial intelligence offer for the European industry and, therefore, as well for the TIC players? Or is it just wishful thinking?
