SEMA Launch Pad Semi-Finalist | Luxe Auto Concepts - Luxe Auto Concepts
John Schurman|

I just wanted to say a personal thank you to everyone who has supported us in getting this far.  You might be wondering what the Launch Pad competition is... well think Shark Tank for the automotive aftermarket world.  This competition is HUGE and could help take Luxe to the next level, and getting to the final stage would represent a tremendous opportunity for growth, publicity, and recognition.  Voting is SIMPLE... all you need is a Facebook account!  What would it mean to make it to the finalist round?  We would be given the opportunity to show at a 'kiosk' style booth at the 2019 SEMA Show, a tremendous way to show off a product and gain a great deal of industry exposure. The winner of the competition gets a larger SEMA booth in 2020, a $10k cash prize to invest in their business and again, a great deal of media coverage.  Thanks again for all the support, and please consider tapping that vote button and even share.

What is SEMA Launch Pad?

This is a very prestigious award presented by YEN (Young Executives Network), a part of SEMA. YENsters are industry leaders who are 39 years of age or younger. The current membership roster represents some of the top technology, marketing and sales, operations and executive minds in the automotive industry. Since 2013 the SEMA Launch Pad program has given young entrepreneurs, students, and business owners age 18-39 an opportunity to launch their products into the $43 billion automotive aftermarket industry. The program shows emerging business owners how to develop, market, and boost their automotive products or services by teaching them business strategies used by industry experts.
