Event Description:

The Manufacturing IT Forum is “Connecting IT and Automation”.

IT departments are becoming owners of manufacturing automation systems, and automation is touching everything from devices to logistics and beyond. Opportunities, conflicts and technologies are creating new dynamics for owner-operators, suppliers and integrators of IT systems in manufacturing environments.

Move beyond identification of the trend to understand how the best have addressed the issues and used Manufacturing IT as a competitive advantage. Learn about applications of technology, organizational structures and best practices for transformation of your systems, processes and business. Case studies and panel discussions will give executives, system architects and technology managers knowledgeable insights and practical tools.
