We’re excited to welcome Johannes Betz as the new Chair of the Strategic Planning Committee (SPC) at the Autoware Foundation!

Technical University of Munich (TUM) is already a premium member of the Autoware Foundation, and as the SPC representative of TUM,  Johannes has long been an advocate for open, real-world autonomy development. Now, he will be working closely with our Executive Leadership Team to help steer SPC projects into the future. 🧭

👉 Johannes brings a strong academic and technical background through his work with the TUM Autonomous Racing Team, his involvement with Roboracer (formerly F1Tenth), and the development of TUM’s EDGAR vehicle, proudly powered by Autoware.
