## About

Katrin Lehmann directs global IT operations across Mercedes-Benz. As the company’s Chief Information Officer, she builds the underlying systems that integrate AI into the entire automotive value chain.

Before joining Mercedes, Katrin spent over two decades at SAP, where she served as Global Chief Data Officer and led S/4 HANA cloud data development. Her talks focus on how custom vehicle operating systems—like MB.OS—can improve safety and connectivity.
