Arena International has announced the launch of the GlobalData Automotive Europe Conference 2025, taking place on 15-16 October in Munich — Europe’s hub for automotive and data-driven transformation.

Under the theme “Driving Automotive Innovation Through Data”, this event will bring together top-tier executives and thought leaders from OEMs, Captives, Banks, Mobility Companies, Suppliers, and AI innovators to explore how data is revolutionising every aspect of the automotive value chain — including motor finance.

As the industry transitions toward electrification, connected mobility, and autonomous vehicles, the conference will serve as a critical platform for motor finance professionals to assess how emerging trends and data technologies are reshaping vehicle ownership models, residual values, and asset lifecycle management.

Motor finance stakeholders — captives, banks, and leasing companies — will gain exclusive insights into battery sector economics, global EV market forecasts and cross-border strategies for risk management.

Key speakers include:

  • Christoph Köhler, Manager Mobility Services, Porsche AG
  • Yong Wang, Head of EU Power Swap Product Management, NIO
  • Sam Adham, Head of Battery Materials, CRU Group
  • Al Bedwell, Director, Global Powertrain, GlobalData plc

Why motor finance leaders should attend:

  • Elite speaker lineup: Hear from C-level executives representing Europe’s leading Captives, OEMs, consultancies, and digital transformation specialists.
  • Strategic networking: Engage with 200+ senior decision-makers across finance, technology, and automotive operations.
  • Actionable insights: Learn from real-world data use cases, emerging EV battery market dynamics, and financial strategies for new mobility models.
  • Sponsor opportunities: Position your brand in front of budget-holders and digital finance leaders driving transformation in motor lending and leasing.
