BMW Group Innovation network.

Where does the future of our products, services and processes begin? In the BMW Group’s Innovation Network – the place where trends evolve into real technologies. The Technology Trend Radar identifies relevant developments early, which are then validated by our global tech offices and IT hubs, and transformed into near-production digital solutions – with the support of strong development partners brought in through the BMW Startup Garage. 

Through BMW Open Innovation, we combine our in-house expertise with external know-how – for innovations our customers will love.

Tech Offices & IT- and Software-Hubs.

From Silicon Valley to Singapore, our tech offices and IT hubs connect the BMW Group with the world’s leading innovation ecosystems. They scout emerging technologies, test them with startups and research partners, and translate them into real software solutions, services and vehicle functions – for even more intelligent digital mobility.

Technology Trend Radar.

Bringing the future to life: the BMW Group Technology Trend Radar is an interactive tool that highlights the technologies we are observing, preparing for or actively integrating into our products and services. By filtering global innovation streams in this way, we can focus on the trends that truly matter – and bring them onto the road faster for our customers to experience every day. 

BMW Group Startup Garage.

Gateway to the automotive industry: As the BMW Group’s venture client programme, the Startup Garage is where forward-looking technologies meet concrete applications within our organisation. Joint pilot projects test solutions in real-world conditions, refine them – and turn startups into long-term partners who make a measurable contribution to innovation at the BMW Group.
