AM is launching a new event in 2019 designed to help motor retail’s business leaders scope future opportunities for their organisations.

The 2019 Automotive Retail Congress will provide economic and car market forecasts, insights into how government policy will drive an evolution of our industry, and examples from other retail sectors and industries of how they’ve successfully managed disruption and developed their businesses.

The strategic-level speakers for the event have already been identified by AM. We will share more details about these once we’ve agreed the outline of their presentations.

“The 2019 Automotive Retail Congress is a must-attend event for the senior leaders of our industry who need to plan now for the next decade and further ahead.

“Motor retailing is evolving fast, and we’re working hard to bring top-flight experts to the stage to share their forecasts for the sector and to show where the new business opportunities will lie. It promises to be a very insightful day,” said AM editor Tim Rose.

Attendees to the 2019 Automotive Retail Congress are expected to include board-level executives of franchised and independent motor retailers, manufacturers’ national sales companies, finance and leasing companies, online sales operations, aftermarket organisations and sector suppliers.

Registration for this event, being held at the Ricoh Arena, Coventry, on May 21, is now open at www.amretailcongress.co.uk
