The participants of the 13^th VZM Diversium on June 14 had lively discussions about this topic. Also the drivers behind and effects of OEMs in the aftermarket were addressed. René Kalmann, former VP Procurement AFI-KLM E&M, made the introduction for a group of senior leaders from different stakeholders in the industry.
