I know many still feel the warm glow from the recent Emerson Exchange conference in Texas. The knowledge sharing, reunions, and opportunity to meet new peers was fantastic.

It’s time to move a continent east and do it again in Stuttgart, Germany! Registration is now open for Emerson Global User Exchange, Stuttgart – April 1-3, 2013. You have until January 31^st of next year to register early to save €400.

As with the recent conference, the Emerson Exchange is shaped by users for users and gives automation professionals a unique opportunity to acquire new knowledge, ideas and techniques, to help achieve a step change in the performance of their plants.

This 3-day conference will provide the opportunity to attend user presentations about selecting and applying technologies, justifying investments and developing automation strategies that work. You’ll have the opportunity to choose from over 100 presentations, mostly from users, on real life case studies and success stories.

Conference participants and experts will have the opportunity to discuss hot topics, trends, regulations and major challenges in the Industry Forums—Chemical, Engineering, Life Sciences, Oil & Gas, Power, Refining and Petrochemical industries.

You’ll have the opportunity to discover and explore solutions to problems in the areas of safety, reliability, energy efficiency & performance optimization in the Solutions Exhibition as well as how to apply some of the emerging technologies being introduced.

This is the second Europe, Middle East and Africa Emerson Exchange conference, which builds off the successful Düsseldorf conference last year—with more than 1000 attendees from 44 countries.

Stuttgart is home to the famous Porsche brand and we’ll gather one of the nights for a social event to have dinner over at the Porsche Museum.

The user community looks forward to seeing and sharing ideas with you in spring in Stuttgart!
