This year marks the 75th anniversary of VTS, which was initially formed as the Institute of Radio Engineers (IRE) Professional Group on Vehicular Communications (PGVC) in 1949 <xref ref-type=\"bibr\" r xmlns:mml=\"http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML\" xmlns:xlink=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink\">[1]</xref> before IRE and the American Institute of Electrical Engineers (AIEE) merged in 1963 to create IEEE as we know it today. The group was then renamed IEEE Vehicular Communications Group before becoming VTS in 1978 to reflect on the expansion of the fields of interest to electronics and transportation <xref ref-type=\"bibr\" r xmlns:mml=\"http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML\" xmlns:xlink=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink\">[1]</xref>\u0000. The year 2024 is also the year that will mark the 100th edition of our flagship IEEE Vehicular Technology Conference (VTC), with the VTC 2024-Fall edition in Washington, DC, USA. VTC traces back its origin to the first conference in 1950 of PGVC in Detroit (with only eight technical presentations <xref ref-type=\"bibr\" r xmlns:mml=\"http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML\" xmlns:xlink=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink\">[1]</xref>\u0000). Since then, VTC has grown to become an internationally recognized technical conference, with two conferences per year from 2000 to reflect on the growing international community. Our 75th and 100th anniversaries are significant milestones that highlight the importance and impact of VTS. VTC 2024-Fall will be a great opportunity for all of us to meet and celebrate the achievements of VTS and VTC and their impact in supporting the IEEE mission to foster technological innovation and excellence for the benefit of humanity.

Much as expected, artificial intelligence (AI) and AI-based solutions played the lion’s share across the board.
