Event Details

What is happening at CU-ICAR? What's next?

Get an update on all of the latest developments ...

The last time we had Bob Geolas talk to us about the events at CU-ICAR was October 2006.  A lot has happened since then.  Some marquee businesses now call the campus home. There have been recent announcements from Proterra as they plan to invest $68 million in creating an electric bus manufacturing plant and hiring 1300-2600 employees there.  Clemson has graduated their first Phd in Automotive Engineering, and there are plans for an automotive technology incubator on the campus.  Join us for lunch in March to learn all about these and other developments at the Clemson University International Center for Automotive Research.
