Wolk & Nikolic at THE TIRE COLOGNE 2026: Insights on AI, Workforce Challenges, and Market Trends
THE TIRE COLOGNE 2026 will take place from 9 to 11 June in Cologne, bringing together key players from the tire and automotive aftermarket industry. The event offers a platform to exchange ideas, explore current developments, and discuss future challenges.
Wolk & Nikolic – After Sales Intelligence will be present at this year’s exhibition and will actively contribute to the program with three speaking sessions across different stages.
Focus Topics: Practical Industry Challenges
Our sessions will focus on three topics that are currently shaping the aftermarket:
1. AI in Workshops
Artificial intelligence is becoming increasingly relevant for workshop operations. The session will outline how AI can support daily processes, improve efficiency, and enable better decision-making based on data.
2. Human Resources in the Aftermarket
The shortage of skilled workers remains a key issue across the industry. This session will address current challenges in recruitment, qualification, and long-term workforce development.
3. Trends in the Aftermarket – and Their Impact on Tire and Automotive Service Shops
This session will begin by outlining the key trends that are currently influencing—and will continue to influence—the automotive aftermarket. It will then examine their impact on the market, overall market structures, and the business models of tire dealers and automotive service providers.
All sessions are designed to provide practical insights based on real market observations.
