In 2021 the Race4Scale project partners published several studies varying from learning by simulation to the development needs in the automotive industry. In 2021 we also had many different events from cross-border workshops to sharing the best practices in teaching. Here are some highlights of the year.
The topic of the research publication is the current situation of the automotive industry in Finland and its development over the next ten years. The publication also focuses on the development of motorsport in Europe as car technology becomes electrified and emission targets become stricter.
