## Resource

In this IBKR Podcast episode, we explore how autonomous vehicles are shifting from distant promise to present reality, with 2026 shaping up as a pivotal moment for robotaxis. Alex Gunz from Heptagon Capital joins us to break down how software, data, and AI are redefining transportation, and why the biggest winners may not be the car makers at all.
