Global Black Swans & Automotive Next Horizons
Covid-19 is the black swan event of 2020: we would have never anticipated that it would happen and how much it would affect the automotive industry. This paper examines some of the changes and challenges the automotive industry is facing as a result of Covid-19 and looks at how the current situation presents a unique opportunity to radically rethink business and operating models.
It is with a heavy heart we announce the cancellation of the 2020 Promo Tour that was re-scheduled for
October 9-13, 2020.
Two days of inspirational speakers and a “front-row” seat to understanding the impact of COVID-19 on the current and future automotive and mobility industries is almost over. Those attending the event this year are doing so from any location and make new connections through this exciting virtual platform.
The connected car has been around for over two decades. However, unreliable cellular networks, the limitation of HTTP for bi-directional communication and now the requirement for handling spikes in connectivity traffic have created growing challenges.

July 13th, 2020 Official Statement:
After careful consultation with the Executive Committee regarding the health and safety of our
guests, collector car owners, volunteers and our vendors – we have made the difficult decision
to cancel the 16th Annual Back To The Bricks Events, scheduled for August 3 –15, 2020.
It is with deep sadness that 5 days later "Back to the Bricks" has to share an update about cancelling. Not what we wanted to do, but it’s for the best interest in safety and health of all others.
Back to the Bricks leaders have been working hard on restructuring the summer events over the past 3 months due to the continued concerns over COVID-19. After careful consideration and consultation with our Back to the Bricks Board, Sponsors and many, many Volunteers, the 16th Annual Back to the Bricks Car Show will look and feel much different from previous years.
Cast your vote now for the 2020 Future Collectible Vehicle of the Year Award. The award honors that vehicle – new or significantly redesigned for the designated calendar year (2020), available in the U.S., with a base price of less than $100,000
