About this Event

Hear from our host Nissan, whose Sunderland Plant is one of the UK’s largest car manufacturers and one of the North East’s biggest employers with over 6,000 staff. With nearly a 40-year history in the North East of England, the plant has built over 11.5 million cars since the first Bluebird rolled off the line in 1986 and is the fastest UK car manufacturer to meet this milestone. The plant is now home to a fully electrified line up of the Qashqai e-Power and Juke Hybrid.
Nissan Sunderland is now driving forward with the EV36Zero project. This exciting project will see three all new new electric vehicles come online over the next few years including a new Nissan LEAF and electrified versions of the company’s popular crossovers Juke and Qashqai.
Join us to network with industry peers who make up the UK’s largest automotive cluster and explore opportunities for collaboration.
