VAIVA

As a joint venture between CARIAD SE and ANDATA GmbH, we have big ambitions. With our contribution to "Vision Zero" - by making assisted and autonomous driving safe - we bring exceptional technology onto the streets. Our mission is our passion. This is a key reason why we get up in the morning and head out the door full of motivation. After all, we want to excite our customers day-in and day-out with sophisticated products, solutions and validated concepts and help them get their assisted and autonomous driving functions into series production as fast as possible. To do that, we integrate automated driving, primary and secondary safety by means of an integral concept. System and software development, artificial intelligence and virtual methods are at our core, and we implement them in line with automotive-grade standards (e.g. ASPICE, ISO 26262). The development and validation of these highly-complex functions rapidly leads to an exponential explosion in time, effort and costs. Our team helps VAIVA customers keep these in line at all times. With all of our activities, we always have our eye on one thing: significantly reducing the risk (and impact) of serious traffic accidents and and enabling new, sustainable kinds of mobility.
