DETROIT – Keith Nagara Director, Transportation Design Program at Lawrence Technological University, talks about the origin of the MAIN event, LTU’s design competition that kicks off the North American International Auto Show. Motor City Auto Industry Night was born after a student-faculty trip to Paris, France, where they were asked why Detroit doesn’t celebrate auto design? This exclusive and popular, multi-faceted event since 2011, has celebrated the launch of NAIAS, awards global industry innovators, and the latest inspirational fashion designs (via LIVE runway), Nagara said.

Nagara said artificial intelligence will play a major role in auto design moving forward. To learn more about what’s happening in auto design, click on https://soundcloud.com/podcastdetroit/m2-64-keith-negara-ltu-main-event
