Digital, innovative, different: the BMW Group is presenting #NEXTGen 2020 online

The BMW Group strives to actively shape and drive developments. As such, it has started to present itself in a new and inventive way with the #NEXTGen event that was inaugurated in 2019. This year's edition sees the BMW Group taking another step forward.

#NEXTGen 2020 offers a unique look ahead to the future of mobility as well as taking a more revealing look than ever before behind the scenes at the Bavarian automotive manufacturer. Taking centre stage will be a six-part series 'Chasing iNEXT' charting the development of the BMW iNEXT as it moves towards its design world premiere.

The docutainment series will be available to watch worldwide in a number of languages from 11:00pm, 10 November 2020 here. This year's all-digital #NEXTGen is accompanied by videos offering insights into the research and development carried out by the BMW Group, and will also be examining some of BMW's far-reaching collaborations.

In addition to all this, #NEXTGen 2020 is also highlighting the BMW Group's successful collaborations in various fields.

Alliances with the popular New York streetwear label Kith and with some of the world's top esports teams and most successful SIM racers or the company's involvement in the development of The Electrified Wingsuit by BMW i, which Austrian Peter Salzmann used to make the world's first ever flight by a human wearing an electrically powered wingsuit, are just a few examples.

And in the #NEXTGen Moving Tomorrow Pitch that was open to students, research assistants and professors at top universities and research institutes all over the world, the three finalists will present their visions for sustainable and individual premium mobility in the year 2040.
