Event Details

The Suppliers Partnership for the Environment (SP) provides a forum for global automotive manufacturers and their large and small suppliers to work together toward a shared vision of an automotive industry with positive environmental impact.


SP's quarterly membership meetings provide an opportunity for members to connect and share environmental sustainability best practices and strategies with industry peers, learn about emerging issues impacting the environment and their business operations, and identify new opportunities for collaborative action.


SP's membership meetings are closed meetings, with registration open to employees of current SP member companies, as well as a limited number of invited industry (vehicle manufacturer and tiered supplier) guests and non-profit / government representatives.


Hotels: Links to recommended hotels near the event venue may be found here: https://mec.broad.msu.edu/location/area-hotels/ ​


Sponsorship: We have limited opportunities available for companies that may have an interest in sponsoring SP membership events.


Please reach out to Kellen Mahoney at kmahoney@navista.net to discuss potential opportunities.
