On this episode of the Futurum Tech Podcast – Interview Series I am joined by Tom Madonna, an Industry Advisor for the Automotive Industry at SAP. This is the first episode in a new series — done in partnership with SAP — where I will be speaking with advisors and executives across seven different industries on the state of their industry and how SAP Industry Cloud plays a vital role in the future.

 

The Future of the Automotive Industry

 

In our conversation we discussed the following:

 

• A look back on 2020 in the automotive industry

 

• A highlight of the changes retailers and dealers have dealt with recently

 

• How customer ownership changes are impacting dealers and OEMs

 

• An overview of the state of service

 

• Why the SAP Industry Cloud is a gamechanger for the automotive industry

 

The automotive industry is experiencing one of the biggest transformations in recent years. My conversation with Tom explores these changes and a little bit more. It’s definitely one you don’t want to miss.
