X-CHANGE 2008, Wonderware Southern Africa’s 16th User Group Conference, will be held from 20 to 23 April 2008 at the Champagne Sports Resort in the Drakensberg.
X-CHANGE has become the leading event of the year for industrial automation and MES professionals throughout southern Africa. For 15 years, our end users and system integrators have had the opportunity of using this prestigious venue for showcasing their projects based on Wonderware Solutions to their peers and to the market at large.
We invite you to submit a presentation documenting a successful implementation in the HMI or the MES application areas.
If your paper is accepted for presentation at X-CHANGE 2008, not only will you have the opportunity of showing a highly distinguished and qualified audience what you have achieved but you will also be entitled to free attendance at one of the most spectacular venues ever chosen for the conference. Your presentation will also be entered into the Wonderware Southern Africa Open competition where you stand to win a substantial prize.
Whether your paper is presented at X-CHANGE 2008 or not, it will be turned into an article that will be published on our website, in our newsletter, in Wonderware international publications and that will also appear in the general media. In other words, you will get a lot of exposure to the very industry in which you excel.
