I-CAR's Rick Tuuri Named CIC Chairman for 2005

Rick Tuuri, I–CAR’s Director of Business Development and North American Operations was appointed Chairman of the Collision Industry Conference (CIC) at its meeting on August 5, 2004 in Chicago, Illinois. Tuuri will succeed the current CIC Chairman, Roger Wright, and is eligible to serve two one -year terms beginning in December 2004.

Tuuri will focus on the CIC vision for the industry, and plans to work with the conference participants to identify that vision.

“Defining the vision for the industry is key to determining which issues to address and the priority in which to address them”, said Tuuri. “The CIC has all of the talent and skills required to develop its vision and make it a reality for the collision industry.”

Tuuri has been in the collision industry for over 25 years and has numerous professional achievements and recognitions. He is a member of the prestigious Collision Industry Hall of Eagles and served two terms as the Chairman of NACE Exhibitor Advisory Council (2001,2002). Tuuri also served two terms as the Chairman of the I-CAR International Board of Directors (1999-2001), six years on the I-CAR International Board of Directors, six years on the National Auto Body Council Board of Directors (1996-2002), two years on the I CAR Education Foundation Board of Trustees (2002-2003) and five years as a member of Independent Auto Damage Appraisers (IADA) Advisory Council (1998-2002).

“Rick will provide CIC with the necessary leadership and direction to remain focused on discussing and addressing industry issues and trends,” said I-CAR Executive Vice President and CEO Tom McGee. “We also need to recognize and thank Roger Wright for time, effort, direction, and dedication that he has provided to CIC for the last two years.”
