Dear readers,<br />

dear professional public,<br />

there are two main important topics resonant between people in the<br />

whole world today – the oncoming Christmas and the fi nancial<br />

crisis with various impacts on all. For the most of people a typical<br />

consequence of this crisis consists in a dilemma, which<br />

Christmas presents they are able to buy and at the same time,<br />

how to save money in so doing. This is a typical point<br />

of view of private persons. However, in the economic<br />

life of companies from all branches, the situation is<br />

much more complicated.<br />

We are also impacted due to the crisis, because<br />

we started a project about the automotive industry,<br />

which was endangered, as the fi rst industrial<br />

branch, by the negative consequences of<br />

the “broken down” economical situation. But<br />

every crisis has also some positive infl uences<br />

and this idea is also our point of view. Mr.<br />

Jozef Uhrík, President of the “Automotive<br />

Industry Association of the Slovak Republic”,<br />

said in an interview, that the East and<br />

Central Europe represents a very important<br />

integrated part in the framework of<br />

the whole European automotive industry<br />

and its importance is evident also in the<br />

future with regard to the European ability<br />

to compete with other worldwide<br />

automotive producers successfully. Mr.<br />

Uhrík emphasizes a fact that the future<br />

consists in creation of research-development-production<br />

plants, i.e. there is<br />

a good starting point of a new process,<br />

which is discussed already for a long<br />

time. This can be a positive sign. Other<br />

managers are also tuned optimistic. One<br />

of them established a new company only<br />

few months ago (you can read about it in<br />

this issue) and his opinions were interesting<br />

for me. He said that his company profi ts now<br />

from the present worldwide situation, because<br />

it offers services for saving of costs, for optimisation<br />

and they are looking for new solutions. It<br />

seems to be a perspective way out for the future.<br />

The “ai <strong>magazine</strong>”, the fi rst <strong>magazine</strong> about the<br />

Slovak automotive industry, is now one year old. Its<br />

fi rst four issues were evaluated and accepted positively<br />

from you, from our readers. This is considerable stimulation<br />

and herewith an obligation for us.<br />

Dear friends, in the name of both collective teams of the “LE-<br />

ADER press” editorship and the “ai <strong>magazine</strong>”, I would like<br />

to express many thanks for your faith and cooperation. We would<br />

like to continue in the given direction also in the future. The fi rst<br />

new-year’s issue of the “ai <strong>magazine</strong>” will be published on the March<br />

next year.<br />

We wish you a Merry Christmas and a successful new year 2009!<br />

Eva Ertlová, Editor-in-chief of the ai <strong>magazine</strong><br />

EDITORIAL<br />

Vážení čitatelia,<br />

vážená odborná verejnosť,<br />

dve témy v ostatnom období celosvetovo rezonujú<br />

- blížiace sa vianočné a novoročné sviatky a finančná<br />

kríza, ktorá sa pod ne podpísala. Pre väčšinu<br />

ľudí tým, že rozmýšľajú, či utiahnuť opasky, šetriť na darčekoch,<br />

alebo či si dopriať to, čo mali v pláne. Zložitejšie je to<br />

v hospodárskom živote, vo firmách všetkých odvetví.<br />

Ani my nemáme zo vzniknutej situácie radosť, veď sme začali robiť<br />

projekt o automobilovom priemysle, v ktorom sa negatívne dopady<br />

zhoršenej ekonomickej situácie prejavili medzi prvými. Každá kríza<br />

však so sebou prináša aj pozitíva, a tak to vnímame. Jozef Uhrík, prezident<br />

ZAP SR v rozhovore tvrdí, že východná a stredná Európa sa stala<br />

silnou súčasťou európskeho automobilového priemyslu, bez ktorej by stratil<br />

konkurencieschopnosť, a bude ňou naďalej. Podotýka, že ďalšia cesta<br />

vedie smerom k budovaniu výskumno-vývojovo-výrobných závodov. Zelenú<br />

teda dostáva proces, o ktorom sa už dlhodobo hovorí, a možno ho súčasná<br />

situácia iba urýchli, čo je určite dobré znamenie. Ani ďalší manažéri nevnímajú<br />

vzniknuté problémy tragicky. Zaujali ma slová jedného z nich, ktorý<br />

len pred niekoľkými mesiacmi založil firmu (čítajte v čísle). Podľa jeho slov,<br />

zo vzniknutej situácie profitujú, pretože sa snažia ponúkať služby, ktoré vedú<br />

k znižovaniu nákladov, optimalizácii, hľadajú nové riešenia. A zdá sa, že tadiaľto<br />

vedie ďalšia cesta.<br />

ai <strong>magazine</strong>, prvý časopis o automobilovom priemysle na Slovensku, má<br />

za sebou prvý rok úspešnej práce, prvé štyri čísla, ktoré ste hodnotili pozitívne.<br />

Je to pre nás povzbudenie a záväzok zároveň.<br />

Vážení priatelia, dovoľte mi, aby som sa vám v mene kolektívu vydavateľstva<br />

LEADER press a časopisu ai <strong>magazine</strong> poďakovala za dôveru<br />

a doterajšiu spoluprácu. Budeme sa snažiť pokračovať v nastúpenej<br />

línii aj naďalej. Prvé budúcoročné číslo ai <strong>magazine</strong> vyjde v marci.<br />

Želáme vám šťastné Vianoce a úspešný nový rok 2009!<br />

Eva Ertlová<br />

šéfredaktorka ai <strong>magazine</strong><br />
