Laksh Parthasarathy , Global Business Head - Smart Mobility Group at Tata Consultancy Services , enables firms and consumers to move into the mobility ecosystem
To navigate as significant a change as e-mobility requires ingenuity , perseverance and collaboration among all parties involved . As with any innovation , partners are crucial for achieving great things , but electrification is a digital revolution and organisations must leverage new and existing expertise to comply with climate change targets and to fully maximise the opportunities arising in the marketplace .
Electric vehicles ( EVs ) are increasingly at the centre of digital ecosystems , with technology as the primary change factor and differentiator between businesses . “ But , with the slew of new EVs in the market and the increased adoption of EVs , especially within the context of CASE in the mobility ecosystem , there is an accelerated pace of change , a reshaping of conventional industry boundaries ,” says Laksh Parthasarathy , Global Business Head of the Smart Mobility Group at Tata Consultancy Services .
When Parthasarathy says ‘ CASE ’, he means ‘ Connected , Autonomous , Shared and Electrified ’ solutions and how these services are leveraged by EVs to drive sustainability , efficiency and innovation .
Having seen the shift taking place around him , Parthasarathy explains that the switch of drivetrain from internal combustion engines ( ICEs ) to electric is opening up digital opportunities . As demonstrated in the EVs on the market today , digital technology enables advancement in safety — through artificial intelligence ( AI ), energy efficiency , and integration with homes to manage electricity and the digitalisation of vehicle maintenance procedures .
