CES welcomes Volvo Group CEO as keynote

Martin Lundstedt, President and CEO of Volvo Group

The Consumer Technology Association has announced Martin Lundstedt, President and CEO of Volvo Group, as one of the keynote speakers for CES 2025.

Volvo Group will highlight its vision for a 100 per cent safe, 100 per cent fossil-free, and 100 per cent more productive transportation and infrastructure. 

“Volvo Group is leading the way in mobility to deliver sustainable technologies across trucks, buses, construction equipment and marine and industrial solutions,” said Gary Shapiro, CEO of the CTA. “We look forward to hearing their ambitious strategy to accelerate climate progress in the next decade.” 

Volvo Group will focus its presentation on the urgency to deliver a more sustainable and efficient way of working through the power of electrification, connectivity and automation. Technology and collaboration are Volvo Group’s most effective tools in achieving its ambitious target to reach net zero value chain greenhouse gas emissions by 2040.  

Volvo Group will highlight its unique three-pronged approach to fossil-free transportation, which includes:

  • Battery electric
  • Hydrogen fuel cells
  • Combustion engines running on renewable biofuels

The company will explain why a systemic approach across the entire value chain is essential to support the successful adaptation and continued adoption of these technologies. 

“We are honoured to take the stage at CES and highlight the impact our technological advancements will have on our industry and society at large,” Lundstedt said.

“Transforming mobility is a full-scale societal issue and we are urgently driving that forward. But the reality is that while we have the technology and equipment available, it is of paramount importance to have vital enabling conditions in place to ensure society and the planet benefit from fossil free transport and infrastructure solutions. CES will provide a powerful opportunity for us to showcase to the world how we are transforming tomorrow across our supply chain.”
