It is commonly attended by automobile manufacturers. Most auto shows occur once or twice a year. is the place where you will experience how the Detroit Region is successfully re-inventing itself as the Automotive Brain Center of the World. [ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] We're home of the "new" Big Three--technology, innovation and R&D. We're home to the hot companies that make the hot cars that you will see on the show floor at Cobo Center. We're home to the people with the know-how to make it happen. In this special section of the Detroiter, we salute NAIAS on its 100th anniversary and take you behind the scenes of this prestigious showcase that pumps some $580 million each year into Southeast Michigan's economy, including nearly $100 million to the city of Detroit alone. Take this opportunity to discover: * How 2007 NAIAS senior co-chairs Bob Thibodeau and Carl Galeana--and many and others--make the show a success. * How innovative companies across Southeast Michigan Southeast Michigan, also called Southeastern Michigan, is a region in the Lower Peninsula of the U.S. state of Michigan that is home to a majority of the state's businesses and industries, and is home to slightly over half the state's population. are developing safer, smarter and more fuel-efficient vehicles. * Why the future of Cobo Center as a world-class showcase for innovation depends on visionary leadership. * Why global automotive manufacturers like Toyota, Hyundai and Kia chose the Detroit Region for their cutting-edge technical centers. * Why the "Big Three" automakers are going green. It's a Really Big Show! NAIAS 2007 puts the world's Automotive Brain Center in the spotlight When the 2007 North American International Auto Show opens its doors at Detroit's Cobo Conference & Exhibition Center, thousands of people from across the globe will participate in one of the world's most influential automotive events. [ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] The 2007 NAIAS will feature world-class vehicle unveilings, unprecedented media coverage and one-of-a-kind exhibits from the industry's top automakers as well as put Detroit in the international spotlight as the world's Automotive Brain Center. "NAIAS 2007 is guaranteed to be a very special year. As the 100th anniversary of the first DADA sponsored auto show, we are planning another blockbuster year with special attractions for auto enthusiasts across the globe," says Robert Thibodeau Jr., NAIAS 2007 senior co-chairman. Last year's show featured 70 vehicle unveilings as well as nearly 7,000 journalists from 62 countries and 42 U.S. states including 279 television networks. Overall, more than 750,000 people attended the show during Public Days and the NAIAS 2006 added more than $580 million to Southeast Michigan's economy. "The NAIAS has enjoyed extraordinary success in its 19 years as an international event," says Carl Galeana, NAIAS 2007 co-chairman. "Outside of the industry news and unique trends that are made public at the show, the wildly successful Charity Preview gala, the region's most anticipated fundraiser, celebrates its 31st anniversary this year and is expected to attract more than 17,000 people and raise more than $7 million for Detroit's children's charities." The Century Mark Happy anniversary! The Detroit Auto Dealers Association (DADA) is celebrating 100 years of sponsorship of the North American International Auto Show this year. [ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] Since its inception in 1907, what was originally known as the Detroit Auto Show has grown from a regional event featuring 17 exhibitors to an internationally sanctioned show with over 90 exhibitors, pumping nearly $600 million into the Detroit Region's economy last year alone. The first show in 1907 was held at Beller's Beer Garden on Jefferson Avenue near Belle Isle Belle Isle, Strait of A channel between southeast Labrador and northwest Newfoundland, Canada. It is the northern entrance to the Gulf of St. Lawrence. in conjunction with a hunting and fishing accessories show. The first show featured 33 vehicles.

The show has been held at Cobo Center since 1965. Entering its 19th year as an international event, the North American International Auto Show is today one of the most prestigious auto shows in the world and among the largest media events of any kind in North America North America, third largest continent (1990 est. pop. 365,000,000), c.9,400,000 sq mi (24,346,000 sq km), the northern of the two continents of the Western Hemisphere. . NAIAS is also the only auto show in the United States United States, officially United States of America, republic (2005 est. pop. 295,734,000), 3,539,227 sq mi (9,166,598 sq km), North America.

Behind the Scenes at NAIAS Q: What's new and exciting at this year's show? A: We're seeing a continued emphasis on technology and design as the auto manufacturers try to differentiate themselves. Today's consumers have 275 models to choose from, and we expect that number to grow to nearly 350 models within the next five years or so. The manufacturers are going to showcase a number of new technologies this year. We're also seeing some wonderful new exhibits. We're again anticipating 50-plus new vehicle introductions, both production and concept. Q: How can NAIAS demonstrate that the Detroit Region is reinventing itself as the world's automotive "brain center"? A: One of the things we do best is to provide an atmosphere for the OEMs and the suppliers to continue to get together on an annual basis. That's what differentiates our show from the shows in New York New York, state, United States New York, Middle Atlantic state of the United States. It is bordered by Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, and the Atlantic Ocean (E), New Jersey and Pennsylvania (S), Lakes Erie and Ontario and the Canadian province of , Chicago or Los Angeles Los Angeles (lôs ăn`jələs, lŏs, ăn`jəlēz'), city (1990 pop. 3,485,398), seat of Los Angeles co., S Calif.; inc. 1850. . This is why it's so important to keep the Detroit show No.1. We provide the platform that the manufacturers use to discuss and outline their business strategies to the world. That is something you don't see at any other venue in North America. Q: What kind of planning went into this year's show? A: Typically, we start planning each show about 18 months in advance. It was more like three years for the 2006 show because of the Super Bowl, and if I may say so, I think all of Detroit did a very good job! As part of our planning, our Executive Committee travels to all the major shows throughout the world. We also meet with the manufacturers to get their input on how we can improve the show. Rod Alberts, executive director of the Detroit Auto Dealers Association, and his staff of 20 full-time employees work tirelessly the whole year to continue to make this show even better every single year. Q: How does NAIAS stack up against its "competitor" shows? A: This year we commissioned a study by Millward Brown Millward Brown is a market research company,[2] with its headquarters based in the UK. Millward Brown was the first company to provide continuous tracking studies, and has researched more ads and more brands than any other research company. Precis, which found that in terms of print and broadcast media influence, the Detroit show has at least four times the impact as New York, our nearest competitor show. And outside North America, in Asia and Europe, that margin goes to a factor of eight times. This really underscores the importance of NAIAS when measured against the other North American shows, and we continue to be considered one of the top five shows in the world. Q: What changes do you foresee at NAIAS in the next few years? A: One of the big issues, obviously, is the need for more space at Cobo. This is an issue we're going to have to deal with as our policymakers work out a plan to expand and renovate Cobo Center. Over the next few years we will seck new ways to leverage technology to disseminate information about the show and our manufacturers' products. This might be one of the biggest frontiers, but finding additional space for exhibitors is going to continue to be a challenge. Q: NAIAS already has a tremendous economic impact. How can we build on this success? A: Independent analysts estimate that this show generates $580 million annually in economic impact to this region. I think this in and of itself is a big reason as to why we have to work as a region to continue to provide a first-class venue for the North American International Auto Show--so that we can showcase this region to the world. Furthermore, the cutting-edge research and development under way in Southeast Michigan could create additional opportunities to use Cobo as a venue to showcase innovative developments.

A World-Class Convention Center Cobo's future as a showplace for innovation depends on visionary leadership Detroit's Cobo Conference & Exhibition Center is perhaps best known as the home of the North American International Auto Show, but visionary leaders across Southeast Michigan see its future as a regional showplace for innovation, education and cutting-edge technology. [ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] How this vision is achieved in the coming years will depend on an unprecedented level of collaboration across the 10-county region, says Detroit Regional Chamber President and CEO Richard E. Blouse Jr. In 2005, the Chamber's Board of Directors adopted a position to support, in concept, expanding Cobo Center and using it as a community asset coordinated with the strengths of the region's business community. Although the Chamber has not endorsed a specific plan, it stands ready to work collaboratively with other civic organizations, community leaders and elected officials to develop a long-term solution for Cobo Center. "It is critical the community's leaders present a unified front on our desire to keep the North American International Auto Show and demonstrate we can work together to attain that goal," says Blouse. Rod Alberts, executive vice president of the Detroit Auto Dealers Association, agrees that Cobo has a bright future as a world-class convention center. In the NAIAS publication ShowTalk 2007. Alberts says a study is currently under way that's looking at expanding Cobo into a research and niche exhibition center for new technologies related to the auto and alternative energy industries.

City, suburbs, young, old, black, white, Arabic, Hispanic, Asian, man, woman, Blue Voter, Red Voter--we all need to identify with a clear brand for the region. Whatever words we chose and whichever images we display, it sends a message to the world about who we are. In the establishment of any brand, inclusiveness is vital to its success. Something that energizes a majority of the individuals and brainpower in the region will not only bring us together, but also give us the best leverage to attract and retain business and business growth.

The meeting also gave Rick Wagoner of General Motors Corp., Alan Mulally of Ford Motor Co. and Tom LaSorda of DaimlerChrysler AG's Chrysler Group an opportunity to remind the administration just how important the domestic auto industry is to the U.S. economy. In a joint statement, they said their companies are the source, directly or indirectly, of more than 7 million U.S. jobs and $38 billion in U.S. investments over the past four years. RELATED ARTICLE The Ficano plan Wayne County Executive Robert Ficano introduced a plan in late 2006 to expand Cobo Center's exhibit space by 270,000 square feet--bringing the total to nearly 1 million square feet--and build a raised walkway to the Renaissance Center at a total cost of $968 million. [ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] The funds would come from extending hotel and liquor taxes currently scheduled to expire in 2015 for another 35 years. Actual renovations would cost $425 million, but the price tag also includes buying the center from Detroit, paying existing debts and creating a fund to subsidize its operations. Under Ficano's plan, a coalition of Wayne, Oakland and Macomb counties along with the state of Michigan and the city of Detroit would operate the center. The Media Is Wired Thanks to the collaborative efforts of Cobo Center, AT&T Michigan, the North American International Auto Show and the Detroit Regional Chamber, more than 6,000 media representatives from around the world will enjoy high-speed Internet connectivity at this year's show that is 300 times faster than what was available in 2006. The new bandwidth will also support numerous media applications not previously available. [ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] Through teamwork, the group was able to find a solution that minimized investment costs into the network by utilizing existing city of Detroit infrastructure. The capacity that is now available is equivalent or beyond what is available in a major Fortune 500 corporation. The increased capacity will also be important to Cobo's efforts to attract additional users in the future--providing a greater competitive advantage in luring meetings and conferences. |
