On 16 September 2026, the Safe AI Engineering Midterm Event took place at IAA TRANSPORTATION in Hanover, bringing together researchers, engineers and industry experts to discuss one of the key challenges for future mobility: the integration of safe AI into real-world transportation systems.
At the end of November, the Safe AI Engineering project reached an important milestone: the demonstration of Use Case 1 at the AVL Tech Center in Bietigheim-Bissingen. With a mix of exciting presentations, simulations, and demonstrations, the initial results were presented, the work on safety argumentation was introduced, insights and problems were shared and their solutions discussed.
On December 2-3, 2025 more than 250 experts from academia, industry, and politics gathered at the Harnack House in Berlin for the conference Research and Technology for Autonomous Driving.
The project was presented at the networking event for projects initiated and developed as part of the VDA lead Initiative on autonomous and connected driving and which are funded by the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy.
From September 23 to 24, 2025, the first major project meeting of the Safe AI Engineering Consortium took place at the Bosch Research Campus in Renningen. More than 80 experts from the consortium came together to present the results of the various subprojects to date, exchange ideas on the status of Use Case 1, discuss the project, and plan the next steps.
