Given the stubborn persistence of COVID-19, increasing numbers of firms are turning to teams software, which helps organize groups and enhances their communications, to ensure that their managers and staff can work virtually for the foreseeable future. Indeed, Google (a key player in teams software) has decided that nearly all of its 200,000 employees and contract employees will be working remotely through July 2021.
When Congress passed a SEMA-led law in 2015 to allow small businesses to produce completed replica cars, it was hailed as “revolutionary.” For the very first time, federal statute authorized small auto manufacturers to produce completed replica vehicles under a streamlined regulatory structure that reflected the distinctly different business model of this niche industry. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) completed the law’s implementing regulation in January, which must be reviewed by the Biden administration before it becomes official. NHTSA’s regulation offers a business-friendly pathway for companies to begin producing classic cars in 2021.
In January, General Motors (GM) grabbed headlines with the announcement that it planned to be carbon-neutral in both its global products and operations by 2040. A key part of that ambitious goal will be the elimination of tailpipe emissions from its light-duty vehicles by 2035. The automaker said it plans to accomplish that through a heavy $27 billion investment in electric and autonomous vehicles over the next five years. Additionally, GM is committed to offering 30 all-electric vehicle models by mid-decade, with Chevrolet especially at work on eCorvette and electric SUV designs.
