Open for Innovation: Leveraging Public + Private Partnerships to Advance CAV Technologies

May 28, 2025 • Partners for Automated Vehicle Education

In April 2025, the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (LA DOTD) partnered with PAVE and Stantec to host the first-ever Louisiana CAV Innovation Day, where over 200 industry and public sector professionals explored the latest in connected and automated vehicle innovation. The event, which featured over 15 exhibitors and a full lineup of programming, highlighted the value of public and private partnerships in advancing the CAV industry.

Tune in for a discussion on how public and private sector leaders can work together to help accelerate the understanding and adoption of CAV technologies and improve road safety for everyone. Speakers include Greg Rodriguez of Stantec, Josh Fleig of Louisiana Economic Development, and Tara Andringa of PAVE.
