Together, the platform will become the centre of business for automobile manufacturers and auto component and aftermarket players to collaborate and exchange technical know-how over three days.

Alongside the exhibition area, a specialised conference will enable technology experts to discuss the most relevant aspects of technology convergence in automotive plants. With technology convergence redefining the shopfloor, the exhibition will also host an exclusive workshop on industry 4.0 in association with the Automotive Skill Development Corporation. 

Another industry-relevant topic to be taken up at the debut edition of Automotive Engineering Show is ‘Surface technology‘ which is playing a crucial role in enabling the design and manufacturing of engineered components with enhanced performance. The workshop has been planned in association with the Society of Surface and Protective Coatings and aims to cover surface degradation and modification processes along with the recent developments and improvements in surface technology that help reduce maintenance and replacement costs and enhance performance.
