CAR Launches Affiliates Program

To fulfill its mission, CAR maintains strong relationships with industry, government agencies, universities, research institutes, labor organizations, and other major participants in the international automotive community, In the spring of 2007, CAR launched a new Affiliates Program to strengthen those industry ties and build support of ongoing service activities.

Program membership will offer affiliates early access to CAR studies, accessibility to CAR's research staff for requested information, and an opportunity to guide CAR's future research and conference activities. CAR will also host two dinners a year to update affiliates on CAR activities and provide networking and collaboration opportunities.

For more information on the Affiliates Program, please contact Wendy Barhydt, director of special projects, (734) 929-0466, wbarhydt@cargroup.org.
