CBBC Auto Round Table event in collaboration with the Institute of the Motor Industry
At this round table, we were delving into aspects of new automotive technology and the skills that will be needed to provide an appropriate level of after sales, service and maintenance. We also took the opportunity to look at the increasing number of Chinese brands, in particular EVs, that are now available at UK dealerships.
We had an excellent collection of speakers, representing different elements from the industry. These included, Steve Scofield FIMI, Head of Business Development - Institute of the Motor Industry, Jason Cranswick, COO - Marubeni Auto Investment (UK) Ltd, Owen Edwards, Head of Downstream Automotive Consulting - Grant Thornton and Andy Turbefield, Head of Quality - Halfords Autocentres.
The presentations certainly stimulated an interesting Q&A session and a lot of discussion over lunch, where those in the audience got to meet and talk directly with the speakers and fellow participants.
