The GPS Innovation Alliance (GPSIA) has welcomed the Alliance for Automotive Innovation as its newest affiliate.

“This partnership draws on the strengths of both organizations,” said GPSIA Executive Director Lisa Dyer. “Positioning and navigation are critical to today’s automotive industry and the millions of workers and families who depend on vehicles for work, to transport their loved ones and to connect with the world around them. Future positioning and navigation satellite systems operated from low-Earth orbit will be key enablers for connected vehicles.”

GPSIA’s network now includes 13 national organizations and industry leaders, such as John Deere, Garmin, Trimble, Apple, Lockheed Martin and TrustPoint. The Alliance for Automotive Innovation brings deep expertise in the automotive sector and a strong commitment to advancing safer, smarter personal transportation technology. This addition aims to strengthen GPSIA’s commitment to fostering innovation, creativity, and entrepreneurship in GNSS and related space-based position, navigation and timing (PNT) technologies.
