"Earlier this year, we introduced our new committee approach to improve our association's ability to develop solutions in the changing market," says Nick Seidel, CVSN chairperson and a vice president at Action Truck Parts. "This lineup of speakers aligns perfectly with our pillars and committees and is intended to invoke some new and fresh ideas within the group."
Mark Hazel from S&P Global and Molly Zacker from McKay & Company will discuss the economy in one, three and five years.
"As the North American economy continues down a confusing path, we wanted to bring our attendees two different perspectives of what we should expect," says Tina Hubbard, CEO of HDA Truck Pride and CVSN's industry awareness committee co-chair. "Both MacKay & Company and S&P Global are leaders in analyzing market data, helping companies better project the future."
Alan Timothy, CEO of Bubo.AI, will talk about artificial intelligence and its effects on the aftermarket.
"Artificial intelligence (AI) is both fascinating and terrifying to any company in any industry," says Michael Callison Jr., CVSN technology committee co-chair and the president and CEO of Midwest Wheel Companies. "Timothy is a professor with heavy duty industry experience in applying AI to current processes."
