In the second live episode of the IAA MOBILITY VISIONARY CLUB at IAA MOBILITY, host Sarah Harman sits down with Joachim Franz, General Manager Automotive & Mobility at Microsoft. Together, they explore the concept of the “Third Space” — the vehicle interior as a third workplace alongside the office and home.
Joachim Franz explains how Microsoft is working with partners from the automotive industry to make commuting more productive and safer by integrating tools like Outlook and Teams directly into the vehicle.
We learn how AI-powered voice assistants can summarize emails, dictate messages, or capture ideas immediately after client meetings — all without distracting the driver. Franz also highlights why cybersecurity and data privacy are key priorities, and how these solutions could evolve alongside increasing vehicle automation — transforming the car from a productive workspace into an immersive entertainment space.
Tune in to discover how Microsoft’s “Third Space” concept is redefining the future of work and mobility — and why digital productivity inside the car could soon become a crucial purchasing factor.
