Volvo Studio Talks - A Million More

The safety belt is an invention that has saved a million lives. But it hasn’t done it alone. It required behavioral change, cultural change, education and governmental regulation to do so. Yes, Volvo’s innovation was the beginning, but we did it together. And even though cars today are safer than ever, that’s not enough. In order to save another million more lives on our roads, we need to start a new global safety movement. We can only do this by joining forces and sharing the responsibility of doing what it takes to get there. Together with guests from various professions and perspectives – we all joined from our studios in Stockholm, Milano, Warsaw, New York and Tokyo, as we wanted to show how Volvo Cars aims to help save a million more lives. And that’s how #VolvoStudioTalks was born.
