Auto industry venture consultancy motormindz said its new strategic global expansion to more than 32 countries will provide local resources to advise and assist its clients worldwide.

The company said that will bring what it describes as a boots-on-the-ground perspective to the existing challenges and opportunities in each geographic region.

The global expansion will take place across North and South American countries, the United Kingdom, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and the Asia Pacific regions.

OEM, venture, and private equity investments in ACES and modern retailing technologies continue to grow rapidly, according to motormindz, which said that is fueled by increasing consumer demand for safe and frictionless buying and ownership experiences.

motormindz global director Martin Wilson said the number of technology providers developing automotive products and services has never been greater. In the crowded space, providers try to differentiate themselves by solving smaller, more disparate problems, Wilson said.

“Our clients depend on us to leverage our operational experience to help source, validate and integrate the right technologies aimed at solving their most critical challenges,” Wilson said in a news release. “motormindz’s global infrastructure will help our clients strike the correct balance between today and tomorrow, regionally and globally.”

“This move is a key component of our global strategic plan and marks the transition from the formation of geo-focused strategic partnerships, to a formalized infrastructure aimed at providing a single-source, end-to-end global solution for our clients,” said motormindz chief executive officer Jeff Van Dongen.

motormindz global director Tristan-Mason Smith said current industry challenges require immediate, global solution sourcing, scaling, and speed to market, and Smith said motormindz can help provide that.

“It gives us extreme flexibility and nimbleness to successfully meet these needs at scale for our OEM clients and their suppliers,” Smith said.

“The expansion provides an opportunity for our clients to not only access a native approach to each region, but also tap into motormindz’s entire global network of automotive industry executives, technologists, and advisers,” said motormindz global director Alan Harris.
