The Automotive Intergroup (AI) was created in 2009 within the Committee of the Regions and it is composed nowadays of about 40 members, elected representatives of regions and municipalities from Austria, Belgium, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Spain, and United Kingdom.

Among the objectives of the Intergroup are the following:

• Exchange of experiences among the territories about different
  issues concerning the automotive sector (e mobility, financing of
  infras tructures, market measures, industry support, etc).
• Contact and exchange of views with the European Institutions and
  other stakeholders.
• Foster the contacts among the automotive clusters of the regions
  involved.

 

The elaboration of this guide is thus a collaborative attempt to collect basic information and best practices and it is an example of the exchange of experiences about the different members.
