Artificial intelligence, new drive technologies and the worsening political situation in the world: Ilka Horstmeier, responsible for human resources on the BMW AG board, and Christoph Grote, head of the electronics division, discuss what the consequences will be for the group.
EOn the other hand, BMW has been a successful car company for decades with tens of thousands of employees, buyers and a firm place in the premium segment of the industry.

Ilka Horstmeier, who is responsible for human resources on the BMW AG Board of Management, and Christoph Grote, who heads the Electronics division, discuss all of this and more in this episode.
