The committee warned that the Collision Industry Conference (CIC) risks becoming irrelevant if it does not attract new voices, such as top insurers, stay aware of new technologies, and act on consistent feedback. Specifically, the CIC needs to discuss disruptive technologies like self-driving cars and their impact on the industry. It also needs to move beyond "granular topics" and collaborate more with third parties to remain thought-provoking for attendees. Feedback has shown attendees want more networking, but the CIC risks stagnation without new audiences and action on past feedback.
