FIA Region I President, Mr Thomas Møller Thomsen said: “Breakdown assistance remains a core business of many Clubs. The event brings Clubs together and gives them a chance to learn from each other. Patrol teams receive training from some of the best experts here and in the end this benefits members who get the highest quality assistance when they need us.’’

FIA Region I and ARC Europe Group are the main organisers of the event where they expected to gather more than 20 road patrol teams from across Europe, with the ambition to learn the latest techniques and share best practices for roadside assistance to help get motorists back on the road.

An automated system to transfer assistance requests and related data from a car manufacturer’s backend to a club’s back-end, SPARX initially supported to manage more than 50 cases on its first day after launching in July.

The first “#ARCLAB Experience” took place on June 29-30 in Berlin Germany, focused on strategic development lines. We gathered field experts of our extensive network, including the participation from our Global partners in Canada, United Stated and Australia, to follow new trends and business models such as start-ups to foster innovation spirit to lead our transformation in our new ecosystems.
