The Automotive Techdays in Rhône-Alpes took place in Lyon on April
26 and 27, 2012 at the headquarters of the Rhône-Alpes Region.
The success of the event can be attributed to the exceptional
dedication of the Cluster companies and their permanent
correspondents and the financial support of the Rhône-Alpes Region.
We had extremely positive feedback from our manufacturer
customers who were able to witness the remarkable potential of
our companies through real-life examples, and liked our network and
partnership approach.
90% of our guests have changed their mind about the perception of our
region : from subcontractors to a network of automotive technology
providers.
It is obviously ideal for our companies to get those customers interested,
subsequently entrusting us with technology projects that will enable
us, as a team, to create development and growth projects for
the companies we represent. We must now work together
to convert the impact of this event long-term, and identify
the topics that need to be worked on, with our customers.

VERBATIM FROM THE GUESTS
EXAMPLES OF PROJECTS
“My overall impression is a very positive
one, and I saw a well-established
industrial network supported by a healthy
number of universities and laboratories.»
“This Techday was an opportunity for me
to discover suppliers and discuss their
innovations with them.
Some of the issues addressed caught our
attention and will serve our business and
innovation plan for 2013.”
“Overall, this Techday was a success, and
it would be a good idea to organise the
same thing in other regions in France,
because that would allow us to get to know
the French industrial know-how better.”
The Clusters’ role is key to create
partnerships between the different
companies.”
