As part of the University Community section, which is sponsored by Magna International Inc., the schools will have displays and participate in leadership symposiums during AutoMobili-D.
More than 180 brands, carmakers, suppliers, tech startups, universities and government organizations participated at the inaugural event earlier this year. Next year’s show will have 25% more floor space (150,000-sq-ft) . The expo also will be open more days, expanding from the media and supplier days to the first weekend of auto show’s public days.

Shifting Landscape of Technology Is a Never-Ending Education
Brent Donaldson, Senior Editor, Modern Machine Shop and Additive Manufacturing Magazine discusses how the shifting landscape of technology that all of Gardner’s writers and editors cover is a never-ending education. If we are truly doing our jobs, we will never feel like we’ve mastered them. As I continue writing and reporting for AM and MMS, it’s easy to imagine how these technologies’ interdependency will continue to grow. It also seems clear that this kind of reporting — the kind that requires editors to experience and share new manufacturing technologies and strategies — is the kind of reporting that only Gardner can produce with any depth. I’m grateful to be part of it.
