THE COMPANY
Cogniance is a 500+ people global consulting organization with roots in Silicon Valley. We exist to help innovators bring software and hardware innovations to market. In essence, we co-create technology products. Since our founding in 2008, we have been building a world-class company on a strong foundation of world-class people powered by world-class processes.
We work with early & growth-stage startups as well as Fortune 500 companies on the strategy, design, build, launch, and evolution of their technology products. In doing so, we practice Advanced Simplicity — balancing complex solutions with refined user experiences, by fusing technology and design.

THE CLIENT
The connected car market is undergoing dramatic change both in the technologies that underpin it and in the impact it has on users and society. For decades cars have served a narrow set of purposes with the same interaction models and same business models. Now all of that is changing with the advent of electric vehicles, car sharing, on-demand taxis, multi-modal transportation and the use of machine learning to make both cars and the systems that support them smarter.
Their products enable a vast number of connected car use cases ranging from personalized search, to chassis customization to mobility apps to radically re-thought navigation and driver wellness. For too long the driver has been expected to learn how to use the car. They have flipped that idea on its head and expect the car to learn how to support the driver.
