On November 4–5, 2026, Karakun will join automotive industry experts at the ASAM International Conference in Munich. As an exhibitor and speaker, we will share our expertise in functional data management, industry standards and AI-driven development.

Accelerating development with EXOKNOX

Modern vehicle development relies on functional data that describes the physical and technological behaviour of components and systems. Managing this data efficiently across development teams, suppliers and simulation environments is essential for reducing development time and costs.

At our exhibition stand, we will present EXOKNOX, our platform for managing functional data throughout the development lifecycle. EXOKNOX supports standards such as ASAM ODS and FDX, helping organisations improve data quality, streamline development workflows and facilitate collaboration between teams and suppliers.

From semantic data to agentic AI

On November 5, Michael Baumann, Head of Digital Engineering Solutions at Karakun, will present his talk “No semantics, no intelligence: Why agentic AI remains blind without ASAM ODS”.

The session explores how semantic data models based on ASAM ODS can enable machine learning and agentic AI in simulation-driven development. Michael will discuss how these approaches can extend existing automation beyond algorithmic efficiency gains towards intelligent, closed-loop data workflows.

Let’s talk in Munich

Hans-Dirk Walter and Michael Baumann will be at the conference to discuss functional data management, standardisation and practical applications of EXOKNOX.
