Ms Fiona Chiew, Deputy General Manager, Messe Frankfurt (HK) Ltd, reflected that: “As the industry starts to spring back from the effects of COVID-19, we believe that highly influential platforms like Automechanika Shanghai play a crucial role rejuvenating the market. It is our mission to help players unlock their potential. Therefore, we are continuing to realign our resources by utilising new digital tools, spurred on from the pandemic, to support global automotive industry recovery before, during, and after the show.”
To begin with, the show recently launched a webinar series to offer guidance on trends and post-pandemic industry recovery. The first session, hosted on 9 July, examined the impact of COVID-19 in the regional market. Chaired by Mr Ricky Wang, China Aftermarket Forum (CAF) Executive Committee Vice Chairman Vice President, he spoke with representatives from the China Automobile Dealers Association, Deloitte China and Launch.
Hailing from different backgrounds, speakers were very optimistic about the post-pandemic recovery period in the automotive industry, highlighting that Asian countries and regions like China and South Korea are already showing signs of early market recovery. Forecasts discussed in the webinar predict that automotive industries in these nations could even start thriving as early as October 2020. For instance, Dr Marco Hecker, Chief Strategy Officer, Deloitte China deemed that this could be a result of strong consumer demand for car sales globally following deferred spending at the beginning of 2020.
