Autonomous Vehicles: The Rubber Hits the Road…but When?
By: William Kerr and James Palano
Abstract
The autonomous vehicles have enormous implications for business and society. But, despite the headline-laden attention paid to the technology, there remain more questions than answers. Students will learn about the complex industry and have explicit discussions about the factors influencing development and commercialization and how various stakeholders might respond. They will also be put in the shoes of decision-makers looking for signals that might help them prepare for the disruptive change ahead. Teaching Note for HBS No. 818-088.
