About us
T-Systems is #1 in automotive in Germany, link: Our Telekom Data Intelligence Hub (DIH) team helps companies connect their data analytics and artificial intelligence (AI) with the right data supply chains, ecosystems and platforms so that data is rich, under control, available, usable, and secure – all browser-based as a managed service in the cloud.
Automotive is evolving and merging into a larger mobility sector because of climate regulation, and new digital capabilities and user experience with software (SW-defined car, for example) fueled by better data (from section on "Dataspaces").
For example, at CES 2023 in Las Vegas Oliver Zipse, CEO of BMW, introduced its DEE show car as a shift from "the ultimate driving machine" to "ultimate companion".
How is the "Data Revolution" affecting this evolution of automotive? Read about our insights from first movers, pioneering, and award-winning initiatives and Gaia-X lighthouse projects like Catena-X and Gaia-X 4 Future Mobility.
"Mobility Analytics" series: From symptoms to root cause to first solutions
This series is applying “Economics of data” (from section on "Dataspaces") to the data-driven transformation of the automotive & mobility business: It starts bottom up to lay out the challenges systematically … from service shift in automotive (story #1) and mobility is broken (story # 3) … to first solutions, such as intermodal travel for speed and sustainability (story #4).
1. The service shift: New mobility as big as traditional automotive, link
2. Power shift to data: The auto-less auto company? link
3. Stuck in traffic: How bad is it … do we age faster … how can we fix it? link
4. What’s holding back intermodal mobility? link
5. Berlin digital twin: Yes, intermodal travel is faster! link
6. Hamburg digital twin: 30% faster travel with integrated mobility, link

Case study: Catena-X data ecosystem
Deutsche Telekom was co-founder of the Automotive Alliance network, which evolved into Catena-X Automotive Network, a 3-year, EUR 250 million consortium of 28 companies with funding by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy (BMWK).
The Catena-X ecosystem is comprised of (1) a dataspace, (2) first-data product templates for data chains like digital twins, and (3) super-apps like product carbon footprint (PCF) tracking and material traceability for material pass and next-generation quality management.
