U.S. and legacy OEMs and suppliers are facing immense pressures today — not just from policy shifts like tariffs but from a new wave of highly competitive and fast-moving international players. Join the SAA and Caresoft Global for a timely discussion exploring the broader forces shaping today’s automotive landscape, focusing on China’s emerging dominance in vehicle design, technology, vehicle development speed, and speed to market.

This session will address:

• Why tariffs aren’t the only story—and what is
• Key takeaways from the 2025 Shanghai Auto Show
• Chinese OEMs are achieving better features, lower prices, and faster innovation cycles
  • How, Why, “What does it mean?”
• Actionable insights: Competitive Benchmarking, Cultural & Organizational shifts, “What can we do?”
