Minda, Qualcomm Join Forces for Smart Auto Cockpit Tech

Minda Corporation Limited, the flagship of the Spark Minda Group, has announced a strategic partnership with Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. to develop intelligent and connected cockpit solutions for the Indian automotive market. The upcoming smart interface will be powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon Cockpit Platform.
Commenting on the collaboration, Suresh D, Group CTO of Minda Corporation, said, “This partnership with Qualcomm Technologies marks a major milestone in advancing Minda’s digital cockpit capabilities.
