BG Ohlins 亚洲峰会—培训研讨会
近几年，世界摩托车经历了一些主要的变化，250-500的小排量摩托车增长已在世界市场中占据大量的份额，代替了以前由大排摩托占据的份额，因此很多车手都在寻找改装件以试图去升级这些车辆，成就了亚洲市场的快速成长，从中我们亦可看到很多亚洲国家的摩托车市场的快速成长，尤其在赛车运动方面。
因此，早在2010年，ohlins 预测到了亚洲市场未来，设置了他们第一条亚洲生产设备，并将场地驻于泰国曼谷外的“汽车之家”。
2014年9月23-25日，Ohlins亚洲举办了它的第一次亚洲分销商研讨会和技术研讨培训，BG技术团队从中国和中国香港出发参加此次会议。会议由ohlins的瑞典资深副总裁Johnny、亚洲总经理Taka san、Ohlins 泰国常务董事Paul、高级汽车工程师Bert、摩托车总经理Robert主持。
泰国是很多西方工业的中心，尤其是汽车和摩托车制造业如：汽车中的丰田、东风日产、本田和摩托车中的凯旋、杜卡迪、本田、雅马哈、川崎，他们都将工厂设立在与曼谷相隔甚近的春武里市工业区内。人们将工厂设立在泰国的主要是由于其已成为东盟的其中一员，与其他东盟国家有特殊的贸易协定，如马来西亚、印度尼西亚、越南、老挝等等国家，这让泰国的产品享受到无关税或者是低关税的出口优惠，加上泰国有极佳的技术型劳工给工业生产提供良好的支持，优势不言而喻。
会议讨论了有关汽车和摩托车产品和亚洲形式各异的市场，在亚洲，BG在汽车产品尤其是越野型产品的销售中有非常坚挺的市场，加上最近BG在上海悬挂工厂的竣工，现已经和Ohlins在运营着其成套的装备系统，促成了BG给大量的汽车和摩托车模型组装和特殊定制的减震，这让Ohlins在中国没有实物产品却在中国市场上有大量的需求。
BG香港高级技师阿森和BG上海汽车工程师小姜花了所有时间在Ohlins工厂和技术研讨会上学习有关所有最新和现有技术水平装备，详细的技术论坛由Ohlins的技术经理Bert和摩托经理Robert讲解。
Ohlins泰国工厂生产了很多摩托车减震和前叉套装，供亚洲市场的小排量车型使用，BG将很快提供这些新产品以顺应小排量摩托车的市场增长需求，而高性能产品的需求也显得更为重要。
最后一天是与泰国摩托协会的会议，BG和其中极为成功的SBK锦标赛组织者Kratos先生讨论了有关2015在新的武里南赛车场的摩托车比赛，届时会有很多中国车手参入其中。
