Advancements in communications software and Internet connectivity help enable the design, development, and deployment of electric vehicles. And vehicles equipped with the latest cutting-edge technology help pique consumer and corporate fleet interest.

But while software applications will certainly enhance electric vehicle capabilities, there remain significant challenges in the development and integration of these technologies. In this online meeting, experts from the EV industry discuss the opportunities and obstacles for the connected EV, topics include:

• How does the integration of software applications affect pricing and vehicle production?
• What opportunities exist for "smart charging" -- managing the rate of the charge, location of the charge, and electricity pricing?
• What are the potential safety and security concerns for hacking or bugs?
• What are the opportunities for open architectures and third-party application development?
