Outline
AUTOMOTIVE WORLD has been expanding its coverage to wider range of technical challenges for automotive engineers. It started from Automotive Electronics and expanded to EV/HEV Technology, Weight Reduction and Connected Car. Adding the most important issues at the time, it has established its position as the must-attend show to keep up with the cutting-edge technologies and trends in the automotive industry.
Also, co-held Technical Conference further enhanced it, addressing the hottest topics spoken by industry leaders. (4,283 attendees in 2014) >>Program

Great support and attendance from major OEM & Tier 1
AUTOMOTIVE WORLD gathered unrivalled number of engineers and decision makers from Japanese/Asian OEM and Tier 1 (several hundred professionals from each of the Japanese top 3 OEM, TOYOTA, NISSAN and HONDA), gaining huge support from their top management. The great example is the Advisory Committee, consisting of executives of TOYOTA, NISSAN, HONDA, MAZDA, MITSUBISHI, GM JAPAN, KEIHIN, DENSO, HITACHI AUTOMOTIVE SYSTEMS, CONTINENTAL, BOSCH, MAGNA and so on.
Achieving high quality and quantity of visitors, the show achieved very high level of exhibitor satisfaction, which led to the fact that most of the exhibitors applied for the next show during the 2014 show.
