What a show we have for you today, where we ask the all-important question – what is driving the future of mobility and tire innovation. Obviously we have a ton of variables involved, but by understanding those driving forces, perhaps we can get a better look at what should be the industry priorities over the next decade.

And to help decode this answer, I am very excited to welcome a giant in the tire industry from Hankook Tires. With more than 30 years of mobility experience, including 20 years at Michelin and now 6 years at Hankook Tires, Guy Heywood is no stranger to finding success in both diverse and varying conditions. In addition to his work with Hankook, he has spent the last 12 years as an ambassador for Transaid, a charity based in the UK with their main work being in Sub Saharan Africa – where they work on providing cost effective, scalable and sustainable mobility solutions for remote communities.
