CONTACT brings success strategies for digital transformation to the stage
At Open World 2024, CONTACT Software will present a comprehensive program for a fast and future-proof digital transformation together with international customers and partners from November 12 to 13.
Enterprises that accelerate their digital transformation, tap into new business areas, and conserve resources gain decisive advantages in an increasingly dynamic market environment. CONTACT Software will focus on the strategies, technologies, and best practices necessary for this at the upcoming Open World.
Under the motto “Fast Forward Digital Transformation”, the international CONTACT community will provide valuable insights into successful digitalization projects in eight key areas, including PLM, IoT, MES, AI, and Cloud. Contributions from Audi, BASF, HUBER+SUHNER, Kiekert, MANN+HUMMEL, Mitsubishi Electric, and many other customers and partners will demonstrate how companies use CONTACT’s solutions to develop and manufacture smart products, operate digital services, and integrate sustainability and the circular economy into the value creation.
CONTACT’s Managing Director Maximilian Zachries will open the two-day conference with a keynote on the company’s corporate development and future strategy. Head of Development Frank Patz-Brockmann will then introduce the new version of the modular low-code platform Elements and provide an outlook on the innovation roadmap.
Another highlight is the keynote by guest speaker Ranga Yogeshwar. The science journalist, author, and physicist will explore in his lecture which priorities and values will matter in a world undergoing fundamental technical, social, and ecological transformations.
Numerous workshops on CONTACT’s key technologies for end-to-end digitalization of development, production, and service business, guided tours through the extensive partner exhibition, and a panel discussion on taking action in the age of digitalization and sustainability will round off the program of this year’s Open World.
