Brussels is to host the 2016 Emerson Global Users Exchange, Europe, Middle East and Africa, and online registration is now open at www.emersonexchange.org/emea. The three-day event aimed at existing and potential users of Emerson Process Management products and services will be held from 12 to 14 April at Square Meeting Centre.
“The third Global Users Exchange in Europe promises to surpass the successful events held in Germany, with even greater interest from presenters and delegates wanting to participate,” said Roel van Doren, president, Emerson Process Management Europe. “The theme of this year’s event is ‘New Reality, New Opportunity’ reflecting the challenges that a rapidly changing world is creating for the process industry, the new opportunities that are emerging and the right approaches to take to ensure improved performance and profitability.”
During the event - which will be tailored to meet the needs of users from the three regions – delegates will have the opportunity to attend over 100 presentations, predominately from Emerson users, describing current projects and applications. Presentations will enable delegates to find out how to dramatically enhance safety and compliance; reduce complexity, accommodate change and cut the costs of major projects; become top quartile performers through integrated reliability programmes; develop more effective energy management strategies; optimise operations and ensure the most efficient use of capital and resources; minimise downtime and risk during control system migrations.
The conference programme will also include industry forums, allowing open discussions between delegates and experienced industry professionals, plus a solutions exhibition, where delegates can receive hands-on demonstrations of Emerson’s latest and most innovative products and services. Delegates will also be able to interact and network with their peers, business partners and other industry leaders, meeting the experts behind the technologies and learning how innovations can be used in practice.
