What nobody talks about in eMobility marketing



eMobility is booming with innovation, yet when it comes to marketing something crucial is missing. Most companies are solving the same challenges in isolation, leading to wasted effort, invisible solutions, and slower adoption. What if marketers, founders, and executives across our industry could tap into each other’s insights instead of reinventing the wheel?

In this session, Theo Reichgelt (Founder, Nexxt Industry) will uncover what’s missing in our approach today, what we stand to gain if we fix it, and why stronger collaboration in marketing could be the turning point for the adoption and growth of eMobility. For the first time at ICNC, he will reveal a new initiative designed to bring eMobility marketers and leaders together so no one has to face the industry’s challenges alone, and so we can unlock faster growth and stronger impact together.

If you’re a marketer, founder, or C-level leader in eMobility, this is the one talk at ICNC you cannot afford to miss.

The Future of EV Driver Support in a Maturing Market



As EV charging becomes mainstream, driver support is evolving into sophisticated, tech-enabled customer experiences. This panel brings together established customer support companies alongside AI-first startups that automate Level 1 EV driver support.

The fundamental question is: Where's the sweet spot between full automation and human touch? EV charging's technical complexity demands expertise, yet scale requires efficiency. Traditional providers are building internal AI systems to manage workload, while AI-native companies are discovering they still might need human agents for complex issues. Explore the challenges, opportunities, and emerging trends in EV driver support that balance personalization with scalability in an industry where customer experience can make or break adoption.

From Protocols to People: Reliability Through Better Charging Experiences



We’ll examine reliability as a systems problem across the EV charging stack. The talk connects OCPP/ISO 15118 implementations, charger firmware variability, roaming clearinghouse behaviors, and data quality (site metadata, opening hours, connector status) to real outcomes for drivers. We’ll share:

  • A practical fault taxonomy (hardware/protocol/UI) and how being fully compliant with standards helps isolate root causes.
  • How proactive monitoring and alerting reduce MTTR (mean time to repair) without impacting live sessions.
  • Approaches to charger‑agnostic design amid inconsistent protocol implementations.
  • How small data improvements (photos, POI accuracy) raise trust and usage.
  • Collaboration models between software providers, CPOs, and manufacturers that improve uptime and SLA adherence.

Powering fast, flexible and profitable e-mobility solutions for commercial road transportation



We are currently witnessing a growing political push to transform commercial fleets to EVs. The progress so far is a significant achievement for the industry, the market, and society as a whole. However, the transition also presents challenges that require effective solutions to ensure mass EV adoption within commercial fleets. By utilizing smart charging algorithms, combined with charging and BESS infrastructure for grid-balancing support, fleet owners can improve TCO/ROI while accelerating their time-to-market. Additionally, the increasing need for public and semi-public charging access on longer journeys must be addressed and integrated into the overall strategy to further accelerate EV fleet adoption.
