Deadline: 5-May-23
The European Association of Automotive Suppliers (CLEPA) is seeking nominations for its Innovation Awards to celebrate and recognise the innovative excellence of the European automotive supply industry, and invites, companies, SMEs and start-ups from across the automotive supply ecosystem to submit applications on their latest innovations!
The automotive supply industry is driven by cutting-edge technologies and an innovative mindset. A successful mobility transformation is not possible without the contributions of automotive suppliers. In fact, the mobility-technology industry is one of the most innovative in the EU, with €30 billion invested in R&D each year.
This year’s edition has a special focus on the pioneering achievements supporting the twin Green and Digital transition of Europe.
This contest and flagship event is organised by CLEPA, the European Association of Automotive Suppliers, with the support of Deloitte.
The selected technologies of the 8th edition of the CLEPA Innovation Awards will be unveiled during a special ceremony in Brussels, in October.
