“The agenda topics are of high interest to any PLM professional, and the line-up of speakers is great, matching previous PDT Europe and PLM Road Map events,” says Mr. Håkan Kårdén, Eurostep’s Director of Marketing. “In times like these, everything is challenged, but the way to respond is not by standing still but by accelerating efforts and investments to help us meet the future. This year has demonstrated that we need to design PLM to be an agile, resilient, and systems-wide life cycle as well as supply chain. We are looking forward to delivering another must-attend event, this time on-line,” added Mr. Kårdén.
According to Ms. Cheryl Peck, CIMdata’s Director of Marketing, “Back in November of 2020, we successfully introduced our first-ever virtual-live PLM Road Map & PDT conference. For our spring 2021 event, we are once again planning a virtual event focused on disruptive technologies and the value they promise. Keeping track of a large number of disruptors can be daunting and not optional if we do not want to miss out on the opportunities disruption affords. The agenda topics we have put together will expand our scope of thinking and help PLM Professionals learn how to harness the potential of using disruptive technologies to maximize organizational value.”
PLM Road Map & PDT is a highly relevant event for PLM industry leaders and PLM practitioners globally, providing independent education where ideas, trends, experiences, and relationships critical to the industry germinate and take root.
