Cambridge, UK – 8 May 2014:AVEVA today opens registration for the AVEVA World Summit 2014, being held from 14-16 October in Berlin, Germany. AVEVA customers from across the world’s process plant, power and marine industries are invited to the Summit to share their experiences and business challenges.
AVEVA CEO Richard Longdon is among the many presenters at the AVEVA World Summit 2014.
The 2013 Summit drew delegates from 27 countries and offered dedicated agendas for plant Owner Operators, engineering contractors (EPCs) and shipbuilders. This popular agenda structure will be retained for the 2014 Summit, providing a mix of general interest sessions, as well as dedicated presentations and case studies to suit the specific interests of delegates from different industry sectors.
“The Summit is firmly established as AVEVA’s premier international customer conference,” saidSteve Tongish, Vice President of Marketing, AVEVA. “We produce an outstanding programme of AVEVA and customer presentations and we always include a few surprises. Delegates benefit from the wide exchange of ideas that only a global, multi-industry event can offer. And they also enjoy a unique opportunity to network with other decision-makers during the breaks and the social activities.”
“Like last year, when we launched our groundbreaking AVEVA E3D Insight mobile app, we will once again be making exciting new technology announcements and updating delegates on the latest developments in our existing products and strategies. The 2013 Summit in Boston proved a roaring success and Berlin is an equally exciting city to host the AVEVA World Summit this year. We look forward to delivering another outstanding conference for senior managers and professionals from the world’s engineering industries,” Tongish concluded.
Customer speakers at last year’s Summit included: ADMA OPCO, Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering, EDC Consulting, Korea Southern Power, MAN Diesel & Turbo, Lengiproneftechim, Milpo, Mitsui Engineering & Shipbuilding, Pacific Rubiales, Promon, Sembawang Shipyard, Siemens, SINOPEC, SPK ERA, Statoil, Suncor, Sredne-Nevsky Shipyard, Technip, Wood Group and Worley Parsons.
