Description:
Meet the buyer
To help build new relationships and engage with potential suppliers, the Automotive Council and its partners are holding an event on to bring together the premium product manufacturers and the premium automotive vehicle manufacturers including Jaguar Land Rover, Rolls Royce Motor Cars, Toyota, Nissan, Aston Martin and Bentley. The Meet the Buyer event will include a seminar session, exhibition area, ‘one to one’ introductory meetings with representatives from purchasing departments, aiming to connect innovative suppliers and potential buyers with specific requirements.
During the seminar there will be an opportunity for you to hear from OEMs, industry organisations as well as learn the support available for suppliers of low volume premium products and services. As well as attending the event manufacturers are invited to exhibit their goods and services at the event in the exhibition area (spaces are limited so manufacturers should indicate their desire to exhibit when submitting their Expression of Interest).
The information provided will allow the automotive OEMs to identify manufacturers that match their purchasing requirements and request a ‘one to one’ meeting to discuss how they could possibly work together.
Innovation show case
In addition, potential suppliers will have an opportunity to showcase their innovation, conceptual design or new product to a wider audience in ‘Innovation Stand-Ups’ sessions. These sessions will be conducted to a closed audience of OEM representatives from purchasing, research & development and design engineering. Attending delegates will be required to register their interest and will be approved before confirmation of attendance is issued.
