In recent years, the race to develop autonomous vehicles (AVs) has shifted into high gear. Automotive manufacturers and suppliers are accelerating partnerships and merging with former competitors to navigate the complex landscape of AV technology and consumer markets. This cross-sector collaboration brings together diverse operators from traditional automotive and newer technology backgrounds, each with unique strengths, on a journey to create new markets for AVs and gain market share. The rise of AVs brings with it a new raft of regulations, both at an international and country level, aimed at regulating the production, sale, use and safety of self-driving vehicles.
