The automotive industry has undertaken a deep transformation process that has been speeded up by the current severe economic crisis and will continue in the coming years.
Change is nevertheless also an opportunity and can underpin economic and social progress, when it is anticipated through effective dialogue and takes place under sound and socially responsible conditions. In order to address future challenges and market developments, it is fundamental to redeploy the European automotive industry to activities with more added-value and providing new and better jobs. This can only be achieved through an in-depth analysis of changing mobility, societal and environmental demands shedding light on how the sector will evolve in the future and how this will impact the supply chain and the regulatory field.
The main purpose of this project is continuing the implementation the "European Partnership for the anticipation of change in the automotive industry", by running three of the actions of the partnership in a period of one year (2009-2010).
