Introductionfrom the Publisher
Michael Gove
Dear advertiser,
Here at just-auto we believe that innovation and investment are the key to success. Fifteen years ago, just-auto launched as the second subscription news website in the world. In the intervening years, the world has experienced two global recessions, the birth of the internet and a revolution in personal communication. Each time, those companies that continued to invest in their brands during downturns were the first to benefit when good times returned. Investing by developing skilled workforces, innovating product developments, and by continuing to market to consumers and potential partners in the automotive industry.
Looking forward, expected global population growth will test the auto industry as it attempts to provide transportation for 8.3 bn people worldwide by 2030. In addition, a burgeoning worldwide middle class will drive demand for car ownership. Rising to these challenges will require wholesale changes in the way that we approach mobility. Whatever happens, just-auto will continue to be a voice for change by reflecting on the very best in automotive innovation around the world.
Thank you for continuing to support us, and our worldwide auto industry readership,
Michael Gove
