As concern around the COVID-19 coronavirus mount in the auto industry and beyond, the organizers of the Conference of Automotive Remarketing have postponed the 2020 CAR Conference, originally scheduled for later this month in Las Vegas.

 “As the organizer of The CAR Conference, we have been in close communication with our key partners including NAAA, IARA, the IAG and our key sponsors including Cox Automotive, KAR Global, ServNet, America’s Auto Auction and IAA, among others,” Bobit Business Media said in a statement. “For 25 years, CAR has become a true gathering place for the industry and an incredible place to network, learn, and conduct business.  None of this would be possible without our partners on this event so we wanted to weigh all of our alternatives and listen to each and every constituency that invests in this event alongside Bobit Business Media.

“After a great deal of discussion, we have jointly decided to postpone the 2020 CAR Conference.  The safety and health of our attendees and partners is of paramount importance at this time,” it continued. “With that in mind, please stay tuned for more information from Bobit Business Media, IARA, and NAAA about our updated plans.”

The organization went on to offer thanks to its partners in the event.

“We couldn’t do it without you and we won’t do it without you.  The NAAA and IARA, along with the senior leadership at Cox Automotive, KAR Global, ServNet, America’s Auto Auction and IAA, have all been incredibly supportive throughout this process and we look forward to putting together a great remarketing event with all of you down the road,” Bobit Business Media noted.
