Autonomous driving and sensor fusion are shaping procurement cycles across vehicle manufacturers. Intelligent Vehicle Expo 2026 takes place from 23 to 25 June in Stuttgart and brings together manufacturers, authorities and suppliers of AI-driven vehicle systems.
Venue and schedule for Intelligent Vehicle Expo 2026
The event runs at Messe Stuttgart across three days. Intelligent Vehicle Expo 2026 focuses on ADAS, autonomous platforms and vehicle AI solutions, positioning itself in a region with dense automotive engineering activity.
Who attends and what they bring to the floor
Key profiles on site include OEM technical teams, system integrators, sensor vendors and AI software houses. Intelligent Vehicle Expo 2026 gathers parties involved in perception, control and validation workflows, which means conversations tend to be technical and integration oriented.
How to prepare B2B prospecting in Stuttgart
-
Target the right roles. Prioritize meetings with systems engineers and validation leads rather than only procurement contacts. Tailor your pitch to integration challenges.
-
Bring small-scale demos. Demonstrators that show data flow from sensor to software reduce friction in technical qualification meetings at Intelligent Vehicle Expo 2026.
-
Book meetings ahead. Reach out to target companies and propose 20 to 30 minute technical sessions. A scheduled meeting converts a casual stand visit into a decision-making conversation.
-
Prepare technical dossiers. Integration specs, electrical requirements and API examples speed up technical due diligence and shorten sales cycles.
Technological priorities to highlight
Expect emphasis on lidar and radar solutions, sensor fusion stacks, machine learning perception models and validation platforms. Intelligent Vehicle Expo 2026 highlights vendors that address verification, interoperability and regulatory readiness for automated driving.
