2 Conference Board International OEM Board Dr. Lutz-Eike Elend Audi AG, DE Gregory S. Warden General Motors Company, US Haruaki Nakatsukasa Nissan Motor Co. Ltd., JP Petr Simon Škoda Auto a.s., CZ The supreme automotive discipline There is no doubting that the supreme discipline in car body engineering is lightweight design. While car body engineering, development and planning represent the very core of automotive expertise and are hugely important, lightweight design, which flows from them, is where the action will be in the future it is a key component of the transformation that the automotive industry must undertake. In the past, significant evolutionary leaps came about through swapping and competing on strategies, processes and materials. Faced with these challenges, OEMs, subcontractors and institutions need to pool their skills anew and come up with fresh approaches. Agility is of the essence, along with the need to demonstrate an ability to satisfy varying requirements and conditions around the world. Once again, the expert conference Strategies in Car Body Engineering 2014 offers the first, and after EuroCarBody the most important, opportunity of the new year to discuss current key issues relating to the car body and to validate approaches in the light of new process advances, new products, fresh production solutions, ambitious planning horizons and carefully balanced stimuli. Here is an opportunity for you to catch up on the latest advances and, in the company of eminent experts, to discuss the future of car body engineering in both theory and practice, with the aid of selected car bodies, vehicles, demonstrators and prototypes.
