About the Association

The Automotive Industry Association of the Slovak Republic (AIA SR) is a voluntary association of legal entities operating primarily in the field of automotive production.

The members are mainly vehicle manufacturers, their representatives (importers) and companies operating in the automotive supply chain. Members also include secondary schools and universities, which are considered important partners for the automotive industry as they provide a skilled workforce. AIA SR members are also interest groups that have interest in the development of the automotive industry in Slovakia. The Association creates a common platform for the active development of the Slovak automotive industry and the promotion of common strategic goals in order to ensure the lasting competitiveness of the automotive industry in Slovakia.

Activities of the Automotive Industry Association of the Slovak Republic

The most important task of AIA SR is to defend the interests of its members to improve the business environment in Slovakia.

Legislation

The preparation of legislative proposals and comments on ongoing legislative processes is carried out by seven legislation commissions whose members are experts from the member organizations of AIA SR.

Legislation commissions are created to cover strategic areas that are important for promoting the interests of AIA SR members. The legislation commissions focus on education, labour law and health and safety, research, development and innovation, financial legislation, the environment, technical legislation and alternative fuels and powertrains. Currently eight commission for EU legislation is under preparation with other member OEMs. The task of the commissions is to respond to the government’s legislative proposals but also to create a strategy for influencing the development of legislation in the relevant area so that the basic goal is met – to ensure long-term sustainability and competitiveness of the automotive industry in Slovakia.

Data and statistics

The argumentation basis for the work of the association is also formed by the collection, processing and interpretation of data and statistical data on the registration and production of motor vehicles in Slovakia. Continuous collection and evaluation of data over time helps to assess the effects of individual legislative changes on the performance of the Slovak automotive industry.

International cooperation

The success of the Slovak automotive industry depends to a large extent on the legislation being prepared at the level of the European Union. Associate membership in the strongest automotive organization based in Brussels, ACEA (European Automobile Manufacturers’ Association), allows AIA SR to participate in influencing European legislation affecting the future of the automotive industry.

AIA SR also closely cooperates with other associations – CLEPA (European Association of Automotive Suppliers), CECRA (European umbrella organization regrouping national automotive trade associations and European brand dealer councils) and EUCAR (the European Council for Automotive R&D). Close cooperation with partner organizations in the V4 countries also plays an important role in creating and promoting the interests of the automotive industry.

Networking platform

One of the tasks of AIA SR is also to support networking and exchange of experiences. As part of regular contact with its members, AIA SR informs about important social, economic and legislative changes directly affecting their activities.

For this purpose, several events are organized, exclusively for members of the association, as well as for the general professional public. AIA SR organizes two important events every year. These are also accessible to the general professional public. Two-day conference Newmatec focuses on new trends in automotive. The second event CEE Automotive Supply Chain, offers an insight into current supply chain developments. CEE Automotive Supply Chain is connected with b2b event – managed b2b meetings, during which suppliers introduce themselves to their potential customers. Events intended exclusively for members are the General Assembly of AIA SR, the General Assemblies of individual divisions and the Annual Meeting, which is a social meeting of top representatives of AIA SR member companies.

Representativeness

Through its representatives, AIA SR is represented in the scientific councils of Slovak universities, has its representative in the Governmental Council for Science, Technology and Innovation,  in the Governmental Council for the European Green Deal,  in the Research Agency Council, in the Sector Councils and other working bodies of ministries.

Become a member of the Automotive Industry Association of the Slovak Republic

Membership in the Association can be applied for by an entity registered in Slovakia with an assigned ID number, whose activity is directly or indirectly related to automobile production. The applicant’s application for membership is approved at a meeting of the Executive Committee of AIA SR. Membership is voluntary and is subject to the payment of a membership fee according to the current tariff approved by the AIA SR General Assembly.

Benefits of membership in the AIA SR:

  • the AIA SR, as a representative of employers, representing the strongest industry in the Slovak Republic, is perceived as a strong and respected partner at the highest level
  • each full member of the Association has the opportunity to bring their suggestions, comments and attitudes to a wide range of issues affecting its activities (e.g. labour law, labour market, health and safety at work, education, financial legislation, environmental issues, science and research, alternative fuels, technical legislation)
  • common positions of AIA SR members towards state and self-governing bodies can be enforced in legislative proceedings or through the Economic and Social Council of the SR (ESR) thanks to our umbrella organisation the Federation of Slovak Industrial and Transport Associations (FSITA), which was created by Automotive Industry Association of the Slovak Republic and other important industrial partners, now our comments cannot be ignored by government. This creates a significant counterbalance to the government’s often unbalanced proposals.
  • consultation and support of members in solving problems with state and self-governing institutions, in the interpretation of legislation and its implementation in practice
  • discounts at events organized by ZAP SR, such as strategic conferences NEWMATEC, CASC, etc.
  • the possibility to vote and make decisions at the General Assembly
  • the possibility to participate in the activities of one of the divisions (subcontractors division, automobile importers division, trailers, semi-trailers and superstructures division and motorcycle importers and manufacturers division)
  • the opportunity to take active part in of one of the legislative commissions (by nominating a member of the commission)
  • statistics, databases, information
  • the opportunity to participate at the AIA SR Council of Managers and to vote and decide at the General Assembly of AIA SR
