...selected as an American Made Hero Company!
Jay Rogers ... President, CEO & Co-Founder of Local Motors.
Jay Rogers is revolutionizing the automobile industry. The former U.S. Marine and co-founder of Local Motors has
created the world's first "crowd-sourced" car. Rogers believes that making car production local - and personal - holds the key to fostering a sustainable car culture that also tackles our dependence on oil.
For his intensity of focus & drive to fulfill his vision and succeed in manufacturing the first "open source" car in
America, Jay Rogers has earned his individual recognition as a true
American Made Hero!
"So we wanted to find a way to uncork that pent-up desire to get people's ideas out there for the customers--to see them
in a real way. So we created Local Motors and that means we created the first online design and development community
where we run competitions and co-create cars together." -- Jay Rogers
