I advocate that the VDA – despite all the competition among its members – work together to achieve the goal of transforming our industry in a way that is open to various technologies and market-based. Our members have the ability to drive the transformation in a market-based manner and without regulation or strangulation.
Ms. Mekelburger had already served on the Advisory Board of Manufacturer Group III for the VDA since 2018 and has now been promoted to the Managing Board, which includes the heads of the major German automakers as well as representatives of the most important suppliers and producers of trailers and bodies.
