Stenqvist’s keynote will cover how the Volvo Group is driving towards the company’s ambition of transport decarbonization, as well as transforming into a new way of working, leading and delivering transport and infrastructure solutions. This includes a look at the company’s current and future product portfolio strategy, and the importance of strategic partnerships to drive market development for more efficient, low- and zero-emission transportation technologies, ACT Expo officials said in a press release.
