Special Pre-Congress Session:

Euro 5 - An Integrated Marketplace for Information Delivery

Much of the European automotive landscape is being influenced by the impending arrival of the Euro 5 legislation. While many elements of this legislation are not per se new, many players in Europe are having to re-think some of their business models. SPX Service Solutions will present various OE related case studies and generate discussion on how both OEs and the independent aftermarket can benefit from this new world.
