Dear Colleague,
Automotive OEMs across the world, particularly in Asia, are rapidly moving
towards an era of cost-effective reduced weight vehicles. But limited raw materials
and Tier 1 supplier capability, combined with the technical challenges of forming
and joining lightweight materials at a low cost, mean there is still a great deal of
work to be done before OEMs in China, Japan, South Korea, India and other Asian
countries can fully apply lightweighting objectives across vehicle manufacturing.
With increasingly stringent CO2 emissions targets in Asia, Europe and USA,
OEMs around the world are rapidly developing strategies to drive the development
of low cost, high volume lightweight solutions and improve manufacturing
capabilities to reduce material cost, ensure quality supply and create more fuel
efficient vehicles on a global platform.
The internationally renowned Global Automotive Lightweight Materials series
will now, for the first time, be coming to Shanghai in 2014 with the focus of driving
down the cost of attaining, designing and applying lightweight materials including
high strength steel, aluminium, magnesium and composites, to enable the mass
production of lightweight, fuel efficient vehicles in Asia.
Join us at this exclusive event as we bring together OEMs, Material Suppliers and
Tier 1s to assess current capabilities and future strategies being developed to drive
the development of low cost, high volume lightweight vehicles on a global platform.
Please take a look through the enclosed agenda and visit the website for the
fastest way to register:
www.global-automotive-lightweight-materials-asia.com
We look forward to welcoming you to Shanghai in March 2014.
