The transformation of the mobility sector -- encompassing the automotive sector and new entrants from the technology sector but also the providers of mobility services – has captured the attention of established incumbents, aspiring entrepreneurs, analysts/consultants, policy makers and activists. Mobility of individuals and goods underpins a key part of global GDP; provides livelihoods and boosts convenience and quality of life; generates externalities (e.g. congestion; greenhouse gas emissions; energy dependence; injuries/deaths); and affects us all daily. We focus on the disruptive aspects captured by industry acronym CASE, i.e., vehicles that are Connected, Autonomous, Shared, Electric. These illustrate “evergreen” themes that the members of the STR division know well, e.g., industry transformation, changing competitive context, alliance and repositioning but also highlight emerging research topics such as industry architecture, ecosystem evolution, and shifts in organizational structure and design. This PDW proposal brings together respected strategy scholars, researchers with extensive experience studying the automotive and mobility sectors, and industry executives and analysts. It is designed to generate dialogue that can help shape future research on ecosystems, the evolution/transformation of mobility, and how to navigate a time of disruptive technological change.
