“It’s All About Mobility”: IAA MOBILITY 2025 presents new claim and sets global trends in Munich from September 9 to 14, 2025

China VS Germany (Europe) Exhibitor and Start up

New claim: It’s All About Mobility – Six-day mobility festival in Munich – Exhibitor registration opens in July 2024 – Last IAA MOBILITY in 2023 recorded over half a million visitors, as well as internationally renowned exhibitors and figurese

IAA MOBILITY 2025 is heralding a new era with its claim “It’s All About Mobility”, highlighting its position as a global platform for mobility, sustainability and technological innovations. From 9 to 14 September, Munich will once again be the epicenter of this international event. It will offer a variety of different event formats, and the city will play an active role.

The shift from a conventional automotive fair to a comprehensive mobility platform is reflected in the broad range of topics, from innovative vehicle technologies and infrastructure solutions to software developments and battery, new mobility trends. The new claim illustrates the event’s expanded focus, which has covered mobility in all its facets since its transformation in 2021.

By focusing more on future solutions like electrical cars, autonomous driving, and innovative traffic concepts, IAA MOBILITY is underlining its promise to be a leader in shaping the mobility of the future. This reflects the strategic transition from the International Automotive Exhibition to a cohesive mobility platform.

“Bavaria is car country and a high-tech hub. IAA MOBILITY has established itself in Munich as an international hot spot for future technology in the fields of mobility and sustainability. We have to take a creative approach to mobility in a way that is open to technology and without inhibition. The automotive sector is integral to the Free State of Bavaria, which is why we support IAA to the best of our ability. The 2025 exhibition in Munich underlines Bavaria’s international significance as an automotive hub and driver of innovation in Germany. IAA MOBILITY and Bavaria are a perfect match,” says Bavarian Minister President, Dr. Markus Söder.

“The LMU and TU in Munich are among the top universities in the country, and produce all manner of tech experts. This is why I’m so pleased for IAA MOBILITY 2025 will once again be introducing pioneering innovations to a global audience in Munich. IAA MOBILITY facilitates the transfer of knowledge and experience across technologies and sectors, thereby helping to create the mobility of the future,” says Dieter Reiter, Mayor of Munich.

“The third IAA MOBILITY in Munich is once again illustrating Bavaria’s role as a key player in electro-mobility, autonomous driving, and alternative engine technology,” says Hubert Aiwanger, Bavarian Minister of Economic Affairs. “Bavaria can rightly claim that innovation and technology go hand in hand here. We are shaping the future of mobility in every aspect, as we offer innovation programs, funding, and comprehensive support for companies and start-ups in the field of sustainable mobility. We also link these together and with research institutes, political decision-makers, and other figures in the mobility industry.”

Messe München. “We’re proud to host this exciting event where visitors can experience and help shape the mobility of the future. Messe München, the state capital, and the Free State of Bavaria are all experienced at successfully organizing dynamic and international events of this scope. We’re looking forward to IAA 2025!”

IAA MOBILITY 2023 in Munich was a success
IAA MOBILITY 2023 in Munich impressively confirmed the event’s position as a leading global platform for mobility. Over half a million visitors, 30% of whom came from 109 countries, came to the event in downtown Munich and at the exhibition grounds in Riem. It drew 750 exhibitors from 38 countries who presented over 300 world premieres and innovations. The considerably international nature of the event was reflected in the number of accredited journalists: Over 3,700 media representatives from 82 countries reported on the convention, marking a 70% increase from the first IAA MOBILITY in 2021.

The IAA Conference provided exclusive insight into the future of mobility with over 500 top speakers from the mobility and technology sectors. Guests included renowned industry leaders as well as major international names like Oscar-winning actress Natalie Portman. The opening address by Chancellor Olaf Scholz emphasized the importance of an event that saw numerous politicians, ambassadors, and ministers from around the world in attendance.

”UNICEF skapar en bättre värld för alla barn. Det finns de som tror att det är omöjligt att förändra världen. Vi vet att det går och vi vet hur man gör. Över hela världen kämpar vi i regeringskorridorer, slumområden, flyktingläger och avlägsna byar för att alla barn ska få den barndom som de har rätt till. Barnkonventionen styr vårt arbete.”

Jag var på ett inspirerande frukostmöte med UNICEF Sweden i torsdags den 21 augusti.

Har själv jobbat som mentor, rådgivare och öppnat internationella nätverk för personer med olika kulturella bakgrunder. Sport har varit en koordinator. Nu idag jobbar jag bland annat med senior frågor och ser hur viktigt fokus på familjen är i samhället i Sverige och internationellt.

Genererar trygghet genom möjlighet till utbildning, bra kamratskap ,förståelse för andra kulturer och en bättre värld att leva upp i.

I dagens globala internationella ”villervalla”, behöver vi seniorer och våra tidigare generationer som byggt upp Sverige, mer tänka till vilken värld vill att ”Next Generation” kommer att leva upp i!

Mer fokus på barn i världen genom att stärka familjer, utbildning, genom att öppna våra nätverk så att fler kan få spela på samma planhalva. Viktigt att stötta ambassadörer ,organisationer som öppnar dörrar för en tryggare värld! Historiskt så fanns det flera nyckelpersoner i Sverige (kristna,) som öppnade bra relationer med Afrika mfl, I dagens globala samhälle är det för mycket fokus från media på konflikter, Digital teknik, AI och religions motsättningar.

Utmaningen är att vi börjar fokusera mer på att få trygghet för kommande familjer att växa upp så att demografin och barn blir en huvudfråga , vidare tycker jag att den största miljöfrågan är ”vatten” ifall vattnet, havet är rent, drickbart, genererar mat och energi kan vi sluta att klaga på att flyga, åka bil eller tåg så att de får leva i vår internationella värld!

Avslutningsvis tycker jag att höj statusen och kompetens för de som idag jobbar med Old Generation, för de är Next Generations bästa ambassadörer -när det gäller kultur, språk, kunskaps överföring speciellt i Sverige!

Stockholm’s 30,000-strong archipelago is rightly famous, but the sandy beaches and cabins just down the coast are more accessible and full of local flavour

The Guardian journalist moved to Stockholm from London for work a decade ago. As a newcomer with a passion for nature, I remember being eager to soak up the region’s archipelago of 30,000 islands and rocky posts. But I was overwhelmed by complex public ferry timetables to dozens of places ending in the letter “ö” (the Swedish word for island) and uninterested in pricey cruise boats packed with tour groups.

Then a former flatmate recommended Nynäshamn, which is on the mainland but embodies much of the nature and spirit of Stockholm’s archipelago. It’s home to a tasteful waterfront of colourfully painted bars and restaurants and a harbour packed with boats every summer, from simple dinghies to luxury yachts. Beyond, you can look across a clean, calm stretch of Baltic Sea, towards the island of Bedarön, flanked by pine trees and a smattering of dark red detached houses.

Mention Nynäshamn to Stockholmers and most will probably describe it as the port you pass through to catch the four-hour ferry to Gotland – Sweden’s largest island – or an overnight cruise to Gdańsk in Poland. But for international tourists (or new Swedish residents, as I was), it is an entry-level coastal destination where you can get a taste of the city’s island life without the complex logistics.

Nynäshamn is on the commuter rail line from central Stockholm, and reachable in an hour. A one-way journey costs 43 kronor (£3.30), or it’s free if you have a valid monthly or weekly pass for the capital’s public transport system. For a little more adventure, it takes a further 30 minutes to reach Nåttarö, the closest island accessible by a public ferry service (£8 each way).

My first destination in Nynäshamn is Trehörningen, an island suburb accessible by bridge, and just a 30-minute stroll from the train station. The route takes in a mishmash of glassy new-build apartments, low-rise 1960s rent-controlled flats and mansions with manicured gardens. Nynäshamn doesn’t have the swagger of swankier seaside towns in the region, such as Sandhamn or Saltsjöbaden, but it offers a slice of real-life small town Sweden far removed from the well-trodden tourist itineraries that typically lead to Stockholm’s medieval Old Town or isolated rural retreats.

“It’s very good for my health,” says Hans “Hasse” Larsson, a smiley 73-year-old former truck driver who moved to Nynäshamn from Stockholm 16 years ago. He enjoys the clean air and quiet lifestyle, and describes a stronger sense of community compared with the somewhat stiffer Swedish capital. “Even if you don’t know people very well, you’ll say ‘hej’!” he laughs.

Sweden isn’t a budget destination, but thanks to a favourable exchange rate, prices aren’t extortionate

Sweden isn’t a budget destination, but thanks to a favourable exchange rate, prices aren’t extortionate compared with those in popular British seaside destinations I’ve visited, such as Brighton or St Ives. On Trehörningen island, it costs from just over £100 a night to rent a compact wooden cottage for two from Oskarsgatan 12 B&B. A breakfast buffet and spa entry package at the nearby Nynäs Havsbad hotel works out at around £45. The spa’s pavilion is a reconstruction of an art nouveau-inspired resort built in 1906, complete with an outdoor hot tub, a sauna and panoramic views. The hotel complex includes original buildings from the early 20th century, when it was a base for sailors during the 1912 Stockholm Olympic Games.

From here, it’s a short walk to Strandvägen, a French riviera-inspired waterfront road built for spectators of sailing. As locals will proudly tell you, it is the only place in the Stockholm archipelago region where you can see the horizon from the mainland. The scenic route winds towards Lövhagen, a wooded area offering shady trails and picnic tables. There are rocky swimming coves too – although, with average outdoor temperatures of 18C in July and August, the chilly waters won’t be to everyone’s taste.

For walkers, Nynäshamn is also a gateway to Sörmlandsleden, a system of hiking trails covering around 620 miles in total and clearly marked with orange arrows and painted tree markers. Section 5:1 from Nynäshamn passes through mossy forests and grassy farmland to the village of Ösmo, where you can catch a train back to Nynäshamn or continue another nine miles to Hemfosa, snaking past Lake Muskan’s glistening waters.

Back at Nynäshamn’s main harbour, the restaurants are filling up with tourists hungry for lunch. The most famous spot is Nynäs Rökeri, a smokehouse dating back almost 40 years, where a platter of smoked salmon, seafood and potato salad costs less than £20. The adjacent delicatessen stocks fresh fish and classic Swedish treats, from cheesy västerbotten pie to crispbreads and lingonberry jam. A nearby courtyard is shared with customers visiting the ice-cream store Lejonet & Björnen, a small cafe and a gift shop.

The sweet smell of cinnamon wafts in the air and I spot the familiar logo of Skeppsbro Bageri, an award-winning Stockholm bakery that has a food truck parked on the waterfront, packed with fresh bread, buns and pastries. “I like it here,” says Emelie Elison, the 24-year-old student who is working in the van for her third summer in a row. “There are a lot of people and there’s always something happening.”

Sweden’s cities empty out in July, as locals flock to the coast to spend the summer in wooden holiday cottages. There are more than 600,000 of these holiday homes, known as fritidshus, which are often passed down through generations; almost half of children with at least one Swedish parent have access to one. They also have plenty of time to enjoy them – most Swedish employees are entitled to four consecutive weeks off each summer.

After a grey morning, the sun comes out as I join the ferry queue for Nåttarö. Many around me are armed with bags of groceries, backpacks and even suitcases, intending to stay at least a week. But one sporty-looking couple, carrying only tiny running backpacks, tell me they are fellow day-trippers from Stockholm, planning to run a six-mile loop of the Stockholm Archipelago Trail, a newly marked hiking and trail-running route stretching 167 miles across 20 islands.

Most tourists visiting Nåttarö take things at a slower pace. It’s a small, car-free island with just one convenience store and two restaurants

Most tourists visiting Nåttarö take things at a slower pace. It’s a small, car-free island with one simple convenience store and two restaurants by the harbour. The main draws are the pine-lined walking trails, rocky clifftops and sandy beaches. There are 50 wooden cabins for hire (sleeping up to six people, £90 a night). The campsite is priced at less than £5 a night, including access to pristine showers, compost toilets and dishwashing facilities. Wild camping is allowed too, thanks to allemansrätten, Sweden’s right to roam policy.

I take a 1¼-mile trail to Skarsand, a small beach in the north-east of the island. I have fond memories of celebrating a friend’s 40th birthday here a couple of years ago, when we camped with friends and their kids, cooking dinner on the beach’s public grill. Today, despite being peak holiday season, I have it all to myself, save for some passing hikers.

The sunny afternoon passes quickly, and a couple of hours later I’m back on the ferry for Nynäshamn. The Stockholm pair have made it too, having successfully completed their run. They are eagerly awaiting a pizza reward at Maggan’s, another popular restaurant in Nynäshamn’s harbour, and tell me they’ve squeezed clean T-shirts into their backpacks to change into. I’m planning a sunny evening drink on the waterfront too. Tomorrow I’ll be at my desk, catching up on emails – and researching my next coastal adventure.
