The alliance consists of approximately 140 companies, including connected car stakeholders and developers.

�Our goal is to advance the in-vehicle radio experience for consumers by engaging with the automotive industry to capitalize on new and emerging technologies,� said NAB Chief Technology Officer Sam Matheny, who added that the collaboration offers a �unqiue opportunity to liaise� with representatives from across the connected car industry.
