The battery industry is evolving rapidly, with Europe striving to position itself competitively against dominant players such as China and the United States. Strategic actions are essential to strengthen Europe's position in the global battery value chain.

In this panel, we will present the results of Capgemini Research Institute’s latest study, "The Battery Revolution: Shaping Tomorrow's Mobility and Energy". We will address how batteries are set to transform existing industries, from automotive to aviation, and examine Europe's strategic positioning in the global battery market. The discussion will cover critical challenges facing the European battery industry, including innovations in battery cell and system development, economic viability, and the industrial ramping up of gigafactories.

Together with experts from the battery, automotive, and aviation industries, we will explore strategies to overcome these challenges and identify actionable steps. We will highlight the importance of integrating digital technologies, fostering collaboration and the role of government regulation in shaping the future of the European battery ecosystem.
