Meet LightSource at MEMA AC25

The AI-Native Platform for Direct Materials, Built for the Pace of Detroit.

Discover how the world's leading vehicle suppliers and manufacturers are finally upgrading direct materials procurement to match the speed of NPI.

Two Days. One Mission: Supplier Success.

The automotive landscape is changing faster than ever, driven by EV adoption, AI technology, and a renewed focus on North American competitiveness.

This year's MEMA AC25 event is all about strengthening the supply base. At LightSource, we specialize in helping suppliers and manufacturers move from Spec to Scale faster than ever before.

We turn chaotic, spreadsheet-driven NPI into a structured, single-platform process, ensuring cost control from the first design spec to final production.

If you're in Novi at MEMA AC25, we'd love to meet with you. Our team will be on-site to:

  • discuss new supplier and buyer opportunities

  • show you how you can leverage AI Native technology to accelerate sourcing and awards

  • simplify your quote, item, BOM, and RFX

  • future-proof your business as a buyer or supplier
