eCall: Where do we go from here?

The Ertico Partnership is hosting a one-day forum in Brussels on 7 November 2013 to examine the future development of automated emergency call (eCall) and how it may be integrated into a wider telematics platform. With eCall mandated in Europe for new types of cars from October 2015, how can the broader global concept of emergency call move forward and take advantage of this in-vehicle technology?

The 374 Ertico Partnership is hosting a one-day forum in Brussels on 7 November 2013 to examine the future development of automated emergency call (eCall) and how it may be integrated into a wider telematics platform.  With eCall mandated in Europe for new types of cars from October 2015, how can the broader global concept of emergency call move forward and take advantage of this in-vehicle technology?
 
Discussions and debates will take place around a series of topics, such as: the status of Emergency Call once eCall is deployed; challenges to enable further business opportunities; the potential of new technologies and new services within Emergency Call and beyond eCall.

An agenda will be published shortly.

    Drivers who ply their trade on apps such as Uber could be under greater scrutiny as part of proposals being put forward by the UK government. The potential risk to passengers from the explosion of ride-hailing apps, as private-hire drivers are perceived to receive less thorough vetting – for example, to flag up past convictions – has long been argued. Incidents such as the murders of passengers by a Didi driver in China heightened such concerns - although critics point out that a US Uber driver who ad
