Lightstone at SA Auto Week

As a trusted data partner, Lightstone showcased insights geared to support motor manufacturers, finance partners, industry associations, motor vehicle dealerships, insurers and component industry suppliers. In addition, our analytical director, Paul Roux De Kock, one of the panel members, discussed the importance of data in the industry. Key highlights of the discussion included a focus on data security, monetisation of data, ownership of data and a call for barriers to industry data, such as vehicle values, to be broken down for the benefit of all players in the industry.

The Lightstone exhibition stand was welcomed by key industry stakeholders and provided a platform for Lightstone and the industry to reconnect on key topics such as SmartID (Lightstone’s vehicle valuation platform); residual value forecasting modules, dealer network location intelligence solutions, vehicle recall solutions and customer experience software aimed at driving customer retention and loyalty.
