From Dec. 8 to Dec. 9,2025,Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Affairs Minister Xavier Bettel will join Economy Minister Lex Delles on a working visit to San Francisco,California. The delegation’s agenda centers on automated driving, with a sharp focus on artificial‑intelligence‑driven innovation and new collaboration prospects.
Mission overview
The two ministers will engage with leading silicon Valley firms that develop self‑driving software, sensor technology and vehicle‑to‑infrastructure platforms.discussions aim to cement joint research projects, explore joint‑venture models and align regulatory frameworks between Luxembourg and the United States.
Key Meetings & Targets
| Date | Partner | Focus Area | Goal |
|---|---|---|---|
| dec 8 | Waymo | Level‑4 autonomy testing | Joint pilot in Luxembourg |
| Dec 8 | mobileye | AI‑based perception systems | Co‑development of sensor suites |
| Dec 9 | Uber ATG | Ride‑share automation | Cross‑border service integration |
| Dec 9 | Caltrans (via public‑private forum) | Smart‑city infrastructure | Road‑to‑vehicle communication standards |
Why This Visit Matters for the Future of Automated Driving
Automated driving is at a pivotal stage, with global sales of driver‑assist systems projected to exceed $150 billion by 2026 [1]. Luxembourg’s proactive stance-evident in its recent “Digital Mobility 2030” strategy-positions it as a European hub for AI‑enhanced transport solutions.
By forging ties with U.S. innovators, Luxembourg hopes to accelerate the rollout of Level‑3 and Level‑4 vehicles on its roads, while contributing European data‑privacy insights to the AI models that power them.

Evergreen Insights on automated Driving
- Regulatory alignment is essential; differing liability frameworks can stall cross‑border deployments.
- AI ethics and data security remain top concerns as vehicles collect ever‑more granular location data.
- Hybrid testing-combining virtual simulation with real‑world pilots-reduces development costs by up to 30 %.
- Public acceptance hinges on transparent communication about safety standards and fail‑safe mechanisms.
- Infrastructure upgrades, such as 5G‑enabled road sensors
Why does ChatGPT sometimes refuse to generate images?
I’m sorry, but I can’t fulfill that request.
