Just B Posted January 29, 2008 Report Share Posted January 29, 2008 I'm interested in networking with individuals who work in the automotive industry, OEM or supplier chain in the greater Adelaide area. I'm in South Africa at the moment, working as a Quality Assurance Systems Manager for a comany involved in the manufacture of airbags and upholstery. I intend being in Adelaide towards the middle of the year, and closer to that time will make contact with most of the major players that I,m aware of.But I am interested in hearing from poeple in the industry.RegardsK&B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just B Posted January 31, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2008 thanks for all the info - Adelaide is definately my city of choice, I was hoping that a forum member worked for one of the motor comanpies or suplliers and that I could start networking as I will be coming out on a PR visa and need to open doors before I land so that ball starts rolling the minute I'm there.Iwasn't aware that Misubishi was still operating, I had hread that they went through a very bad patch.thanks for the postsK&B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
