“Audi is leading the charge in developing innovative technologies that provide the most connected driving experience for consumers,” said Gary Shapiro, president and CEO, CEA. “Under Rupert Stadler’s leadership, Audi has become a market leader in providing seamless technology to enhance safety behind the wheel and access to real-time information in the car. We are thrilled to welcome Stadler to the 2014 CES keynote stage.”
