American Automotive Summit 2026
Automotive industry leadership summit (manufacturing, supply chain, technology)
About this event
The American Automotive Summit brings automotive manufacturing, supply chain and technology executives together in Detroit. Organised by Generis Group, the event covers production technology, supply chain resilience and digital transformation initiatives shaping US automotive manufacturing over a two-day programme of executive sessions.
Who it's for
Squarely an executive-level automotive manufacturing and operations summit, genuinely useful for senior OEM and Tier 1/2 supplier leaders in manufacturing, plant operations, and industrial strategy, confirmed by VP/SVP-level speakers at GM, Stellantis, Tesla, Adient, and Cooper Standard. Not particularly relevant for software/CAD-CAM engineers, IT-asset-management practitioners, or junior individual-contributor roles, it is a strategic and executive networking event, not a technical or hands-on tooling conference.
