PANEL OVERVIEW

As part of the 25th Annual Rainbow PUSH Global Automotive Summit, the Vice Presidents of Global Purchasing panel will feature procurement executives from foreign and domestic OEMs who will contribute to a conversation about the industry’s ongoing journey toward full inclusion.

Specifically, the Vice Presidents of Global Purchasing panel will discuss the degree to which the changing landscape of the automotive industry is opening doors of opportunity, and how access to those opportunities play a critical part in minority firms’ growth and sustainability.

Panelists will discuss their insights of this growing trend, including their view of the mobility and EV ecosystem, their success stories in engaging with African American and minority firms, as well as the facilitation of joint ventures, spinoffs, and acquisitions. In essence, we will discuss a myriad of partnerships to shape the future.
