NAFA Partners with A.I.A.G.A., Italy’s Largest Fleet Management Association
With a signed Memorandum of Understanding late last month, A.I.A.G.A. (the Italian Fleet Manager and Fleet Buyer Association) became the first international association to officially partner with NAFA on a global fleet level. The two associations will share resources, partner on events, exchange ideas, conduct research, promote each other’s industry awards, and work towards their ultimate goal – an online, virtual learning center for fleet managers with resources available for NAFA and A.I.A.G.A. members.
A.I.A.G.A. will be NAFA’s exclusive partner in Italy. As part of the agreement, the two associations agree to supply free memberships for up to twelve members of NAFA’s Board of Trustees and the A.I.A.G.A. Council. In addition, each organization will receive a pair of complimentary passes to the partner’s annual industry event (The Company Car Drive presented by A.I.A.G.A. and NAFA’s Institute & Expo). The two partners will also work together to develop educational content, conduct benchmarking surveys, and promote the industry awards presented by each organization.
The main contents of the agreement between NAFA and A.I.A.G.A. will be presented during a video link to the participants of A.I.A.G.A’s second Fleet Manager Academy, which will be held October 16, 2013 at the Alma Mater Foundation of the University of Bologna. Then, during the NAFA’s third annual International Fleet Academy, which will take place October 21-23 at Loews Ventana Canyon in Tucson, AZ, A.I.A.G.A.’s President Giovanni Tortorici will describe A.I.A.G.A.’s experience and provide a vision of the Italian fleet market.
