With the theme ‘Exchanging Ideas. Creating Solutions,’ Emerson’s first European Global Users Exchange will be held from 29-31 May 2012 at the Hotel Maritim, Düsseldorf, Germany.
Tailored to meet the needs of users in Europe, the Middle East and Africa, delegates will learn about best practices and see how colleagues are meeting new regulatory requirements, increasing yields, improving efficiency and reducing costs with enhanced automation.
The European event will follow the same format as the October 2011 Emerson Global Users Exchange held in Nashville, USA. The event will include workshops, presentations, industry forums, short courses, technology exhibits and product roadmaps. Delegates will be able to choose from themed presentations in English, German and Russian.
“We are delighted to announce the details of the first Global Users Exchange for our many users across Europe and others who will join us from other regions,” said Bob Sharp, president, Emerson Process Management Europe. “The Emerson Global Users Exchange is much more than an industry leading technical conference. It is a community of manufacturing leaders committed to extracting the most from their automation investment and sharing their learning with each other.”
The event also provides an opportunity for delegates to understand what their peers, other suppliers and customers in the industry are doing to compete in these dynamic times. Attendees will be provided with a unique opportunity to touch and experience the breadth of innovative Emerson technologies – all in one place. An important element of the event is the opportunity it provides to network with other delegates and industry leaders to make the right connections. Delegates will also be able to meet with the experts behind the technologies and learn how innovative technologies can be put to work.
The Emerson Global Users Exchange organisation is now looking for users to share their experiences and expertise with their process automation peers by giving a presentation, workshop or short course at the event. Presenting at the Global Users Exchange provides a unique opportunity for users to showcase their company and its successful operational practices.
