Dawda Mann Automotive Industry Breakfast features GM?s Mark Reuss, Mayor Dave Bing
Reuss discussed the parallel evolution of General Motors and the city of Detroit, and the close relationship between the two. He also provided a summary of today’s GM, and a glimpse of tomorrow’s, along with a snapshot of its near-term vehicle strategy and other news, including initiatives to help the city successfully write the next chapter in its long history.
“The Annual Automotive Industry Breakfast has become a welcome tradition and a staple of SAE World Congress week in Detroit,” Reuss said. “I’m honored that my friends at Dawda Mann asked me to speak at the event, which is always an important forum where useful information is shared and valued connections made.”
Mayor Bing provided introductory remarks at the breakfast, held at the Westin Book Cadillac hotel in Detroit.
“We welcome the SAE World Congress to Detroit,” Bing said. “As a former automotive supplier, I have a special appreciation for the valuable platform offered by Dawda Mann’s annual Automotive Industry Breakfast. Detroit’s rich history was built upon the auto industry, and this gathering underscores the industry’s continued importance to our city’s growth and transformation.”
