Mobility AI in Türkiye Report
A closed roundtable held on 8 May 2026 with more than 20 participants: the data, regulatory and manufacturing bottlenecks of the smart mobility ecosystem, and the four blockages found at every link in the chain, from data sharing to test environments.
What is in the report?
