wealth of new ideas, new opportunities and new customers. As the
world's largest manufacturer, GM is taking a leading role in this area
with the creation of a new business unit, eGM, in August of last year.
But we aren't stopping there. eCommerce has tremendous potential for
increasing revenues. But eBusiness will have even a greater impact on
the automotive industry - on the vehicle itself, on the product
development cycle, on customer delivery, and on the entire
manufacturing process.
It's not just about technology - or the speed of the Internet. It's
about driving change throughout the manufacturing community, and
