The Autonomous Driving Mobility Expo 2026 is scheduled for August 25-27 at Seoul's Coex, with more than 60 exhibitors and 150 booths spanning autonomous-driving systems, AI software, robots, and mobility infrastructure. Its conference program brings together speakers from NVIDIA, Hyundai Motor, Hyundai Mobis, Qualcomm, LG Electronics, Kakao Mobility, and autonomous-vehicle companies.
The 2026 Autonomous Driving Mobility Expo is scheduled to run August 25-27 at Coex Hall B in Seoul. Organizers list more than 60 exhibitors and 150 booths, while the conference program connects autonomous-driving engineering with the wider shift toward physical AI.
What the expo covers
The official AME program divides the exhibition into four areas: autonomous-driving core technologies; software and AI solutions; unmanned and logistics robots; and mobility services and infrastructure. That scope includes sensors, vehicle control systems, autonomous-driving chips, high-definition mapping, simulation and testing, cybersecurity, robot fleet management, and connected-transport infrastructure.
Korea Times reported on August 10 that Autonomous a2z, Socar, RideFlux, SWM, and SOSLAB are expected to demonstrate technologies and services. The organizer's speaker roster also names participants from NVIDIA, Hyundai Motor, Hyundai Mobis, Qualcomm, LG Electronics, Kakao Mobility, HL Klemove, and several universities and research organizations.
Physical AI moves into the mobility stack
The conference is structured around systems that perceive and act in the physical world rather than producing digital content alone. Scheduled sessions cover world models, vision-language-action systems, autonomous-driving foundation models, software-defined vehicles, safety, regulation, and commercialization. Stanford professor and NVIDIA senior director Marco Pavone is listed for a keynote on reasoning models for physical AI.
For practitioners, the useful signal is the breadth of the stack represented in one program. Building autonomous systems requires more than a model: teams must join perception, mapping, simulation, vehicle controls, safety validation, and operational infrastructure. The event is therefore best read as a snapshot of where Korean mobility companies and their technology partners are concentrating integration work. The expo had not begun when these sources were retrieved. Company appearances, session details, and demonstrations remain scheduled plans until the event takes place.
Key Points #
