The second Global Automotive Forum (GAF) will be held in Chengdu, capital of Southwest China's Sichuan province on Oct 10 and 12.
The theme for this year's forum is "From Volume Leader to Innovation Leader". The rapid growth of China's auto industry, which has lasted for about 10 years, suddenly ended in 2011. The forum will discuss China's need to transform from a manufacturing giant to an innovation leader.
This year's event will attract more guests, organizations and media compared to the previous year, according to the forum's organizing committee.
According to the organizers, the two-day forum will include four plenary sessions, 11 seminars and four themed lectures attended by industry leaders, experts and scholars from China and around the world in the auto industry.
The GAF was established by the Automotive Committee of the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade (CCPIT) and co-organized with the municipal government of Chengdu and well-known international consulting companies. The first GAF was held in Chengdu in September last year.
