The brochure for the 2011 Global Automotive Aftermarket Symposium (GAAS) is now available for download at www.globalsymposium.org. This year's event will be held May 18-19 at the Hyatt Regency O'Hare and features nearly 30 presenters who will address the theme “Aftermarket Fast Forward: What You Need to Know to Stay Ahead.”
In addition, Dave Caracci, GAAS chairman, has announced that registration fees for GAAS 2011 have not increased. “Fortunately, we've been able to hold our registration rates the same for another year," said Caracci. "As we see the economy improving in the aftermarket, we hope this freeze on GAAS fees will encourage more of our industry leaders and their associates to attend."
Members of the associations that sponsor GAAS are eligible for discounted registration fees of $200 off regular rates when they register by April 1. A complete list of registration fees are available by clicking here.
