Powertrain Conference

Westin Chicago River North Hotel
Chicago, Illinois, USA
2011 Event Theme: Are We Transforming Fast Enough?
Building upon its established success, the 2011 NAIPC will
again provide an exclusive and candid (Chatham House
Rule) forum for industry executives to present, discuss and
debate current and future challenges and opportunities in
the North American powertrain market.
A Note from Dan Hancock: Chairperson, NAIPC Executive Leadership Team
I invite you to join me in Chicago for this year’s North American International Powertrain Conference (NAIPC) on
September 21-23.
The premier annual event for executive-level leaders in the powertrain arena, this year’s NAIPC will feature an impressive
lineup of speakers from the transportation and energy industries, government, and the investment community.
The key question they will address is, “Are we transforming fast enough?” Collectively, the conference speakers will
present a thought-provoking picture of where the future pathways for energy and transportation systems are headed, while
conference participants will explore the implications of these pathways for both the short and long term.
The conference will open on Wednesday evening with a compelling keynote presentation from the renowned science
futurist and entrepreneur, Juan Enriques. Juan, cofounder of Synthetic Genomics Inc., is one of those individuals who lives
in the future and works on the cutting edge of discovery.
On day two, attendees will be treated to talks that range from a macroeconomic analysis of North America to the impact of
new CO2 targets on the industry, the microeconomics of implementing current powertrain technology roadmaps, the role of
government and other investment partners, and progress on global climate. Additional speakers will explore the changing
R&D ecosystem, with topics ranging from in-house R&D to Tier 1 co-development and venture capital investment models.
Day three will include three breakout sessions on the economics of the industry, developments in transportation and energy
technology, and models for powertrain R&D. It will conclude with a high-level panel assembled to distill key insights and
major learnings gained from the conference presentations, audience participation, and feedback from the breakouts.
Our intent with the 2011 NAIPC is to build on our previous excellent programs while taking this year’s conference to a
new level. Governed by Chatham House Rules, the conference is an exciting forum that encourages candid dialogue and
interesting discussions. I encourage you to take full advantage of the unique opportunities it offers – information exchange,
networking opportunities, and, most importantly, the sharing of knowledge and solutions.
This year’s event promises to be a transformative experience for everyone who attends as we work together to find answers
to the question: Are we transforming fast enough?
I look forward to seeing you in Chicago in September.

Powertrain R&D Ecosystem: Is it Broken?
Over the past 20 years, the powertrain R&D ecosystem has seen significant changes:
OEM R&D budgets have shrunk; Tier 1 suppliers are consolidating their focus while
belt-tightening; venture capital-backed start-ups are looking for their place in the equation
while facing uncertain returns; and government funding is shrinking under congressional
fiscal constraints. At the same time, the need for new, cost-effective technology to
address energy security, greenhouse gas reduction and future regulatory standards is at
an all time high. How can the powertrain industry put the pieces of the ecosystem puzzle
together to create a sustainable R&D model?
