Günter Banholzer and Andreas Strobel are pleased that the partnership is already bearing fruit - here with the Advanced Urban Vehicle app, which was presented for the first time at the IAA in Frankfurt and for which doubleSlash was involved in the human interface design.

In future, the two companies will work together in four strategic business areas: innovative software development, connected products and services, product data management and enterprise content management. The topic of connected cars will play a special role. In this area, doubleSlash has a wealth of international experience and will provide important impetus for the development of innovative mobility solutions.

"The digitalization of all areas requires close cooperation between the individual disciplines. Development, production and IT must work ever more closely together to enable new products and business models," says Günter Banholzer, Head of Systems and Telemetry at ZF Friedrichshafen. "That's why we work together with companies whose expertise we can build on to jointly develop pioneering technologies."
