ANN ARBOR, Mich. - Michimich -- CIMdata, Inc., and Eurostep are pleased to announce that Josef Schiöler, Head of Core Platform Area PLM/PDM, Volvo Group, will make a keynote presentation at PLM Road Map & PDT EMEA 2022. The event will take place in Gothenburg, Sweden, on 18 & 19 October. The theme for this year's event is "Digital Transformation and PLM – a call for PLM Professionals to redefine and re-position the benefits and value of PLM."

The Volvo Group is embarking on an exciting transformational journey, and the magnitude of change is huge. Megatrends such as electrification, automation, and connectivity are driving this change. The company's vision for 2030 sets ambitious targets to meet the convergence of these megatrends and the new opportunities they bring. Volvo Group must adapt to become masters in producing profitable, scalable, and differentiated digital offerings in this new reality. To adapt to this fast-paced world, Volvo needs to be faster to market, work closely with customers, and possess the ability to quickly scale up digital offerings to maximize its value proposition to customers. Digital & IT will enable and facilitate this change with the clear ambition to become the digital capability of the Volvo Group and enable value creation at scale. To support this change, Volvo Group's PLM & PDM landscape is undergoing a significant transformation to enable the speed needed to meet future requirements and changing business models, including a more connected partner ecosystem.
