A Summit That Keeps Getting Bigger
The 2026 AIAG Quality Summit brought the automotive quality community together for its biggest event yet. Under the theme Elevating Standards in the Age of AI, attendees explored emerging technologies, industry updates, and practical ways to advance quality across the supply chain.
From Dr. Jeffrey Liker's keynote, The Toyota Way Meets AI: Empowering People to Drive Quality and Strive Toward Perfection, to the OEM Warranty Panel featuring leaders from Toyota, GM, Ford, and Stellantis, the agenda delivered valuable insights and perspectives from across the industry.
And the expanded exhibit hall made an impression, too.
"I've been here about five or six times, and it's been getting bigger and bigger. This exhibit hall is fantastic. It's the biggest event I've been to so far."
With more companies, industry partners, vehicles, and opportunities to connect, the Summit created space for conversations that extended well beyond the sessions.
More Than Sessions. Connections That Last.
For many attendees, one of the biggest benefits is learning from the people around them, whether they're hearing from expert presenters or exchanging ideas with peers across the industry.
"It's really the people and the topics. You learn so much from just talking to everybody and the great presenters."
And the networking doesn't stop when a session ends.
"I treat these as massive networking explosions. I try to meet as many people as possible and expand my network."
That's what makes the AIAG Quality Summit more than a conference. It's an opportunity to build relationships, share perspectives, and bring new ideas back to your organization.
