Open for Edscha?

4TH EDSCHA SYMPOSIUM For many years Edscha has been dependably opening vehicle doors, lids, hoods and roofs. In November for the fourth time we invite our customers to open up too – to our latest ideas relating to vehicle bodywork.

November is mostly a dreary month. The world outside is grey, car sales sag, and most

automobile designers and procurement managers retire to the four walls of their offices.

4th Edscha Symposium

Cologne, 18 – 20 November 2003

But not this year! For the fourth time since 1995, 1998 and 2000, Edscha AG is inviting selected customers from the ranks of car manufacturers and automotive component suppliers to attend a technical symposium, which will be held on November 19, 2003 (conference day), in the Dorint An der Messe (at the trade fair), Cologne.

“Automobil-

woche”

Taking as our motto “OpenMinded”, on this day we intend to make our product and development skills tangible in the ﬁeld of doors, hoods, lids, roofs and complete vehicles – they have been greatly expanded since the purchase of IVM Automotive in July 2002. We will present our freshest ideas and put them to discussion. In-depth contributions by outside speakers and a panel discussion will complement the program. The symposium will be chaired by Franz W. Rot- her, editor-in-chief of the leading German automotive industry journal “Auto- mobilwoche”. Following the day pro- gram, Edscha invites the participants to attend a joint evening event – but we’re keeping it a surprise!

Personal invitations will be sent out in the course of September. Overnight accommodation has been reserved at Dorint An der Messe (at the trade fair), Cologne for both the evening before, Tuesday, November 18, and for Wednes- day, November 19. If you do not receive an invitation and wish to attend, please contact us at info@edwin.de or phone +49. 2191.363-363. We’d be happy to see what we can do for you.
