What are Catena-X Hubs?

Catena-X Hubs are the central points of contact for interested organizations within their respective local ecosystems. A Hub may be viewed as a local embassy, representing the Catena-X Association locally. It connects companies, key stakeholders and use-cases from the national level to support the expansion of the Catena-X global network. 

Each Hub will represent the Catena-X Association locally and will work towards a common goal of enabling a data-driven automotive value chain. Therefore, any organization or company that is a direct or indirect player in the automotive industry and has a vested interest in enabling and optimizing data exchange along the automotive value chain is welcome to join a local Hub. 

What do Hubs do?

• Connect: Hubs connect and develop the local ecosystem and enable an easy and trusted access to the various local stakeholders across the automotive value chain.
