In The Year 2030 - What the Automotive Industry Has In-Store for the Future

Remember the old Conan O'Brien bit "In the Year 2000"? Conan O'Brien and his co-host Andy Richter would dim the lights in the studio and hold flashlights up against their faces and give us predictions about what things would be like in the year 2000. This bit started in 1993 and ran for several years giving us ridiculous predictions of things to come 7 years later. (Side Note: The bit ran past the year 2000 before they finally changed the name to the year 3000).

Anyway….

I always found it funny to hear them predict silly things that would happen in the future. With that in mind, I got a chuckle when I came across an article on LinkedIN written by Dennis Elphin, Associate Partner and Digital Transformation Expert at IMB called "In the Year 2030". The article discusses how things might change in the next 8 years and how things NEED to change in the future. In a recent episode of my podcast called "Mostly Automotive Marketing with Matt Wilson" Dennis and I discuss prediction on how our industry might look in the future. Click below to listen.
