The Manufacturing IT Conference & Awards

2007 Awards

Maximising Manufacturing Business Efficiency Conference

This year’s agenda kicks off with a keynote IT strategy piece from distinguished IT and business analyst Mark Blowers, of Butler Group. Following him are presentations from past Best Manufacturing IT Award winners’ Silvergate Plastics, Filtrona Protection and Finishing Products, Seiki Systems and Magal Engineering. For more details click here for the agenda and here for the speakers and content.

These speakers are from manufacturers that have achieved hard-won business benefits by implementing IT as an integral and essential part of major business transformation projects. On this one occasion, they have agreed to tell you how they did it, how they’re sustaining it – and how they plan to continue succeeding in the future.

By attending, you’ll also be the first to talk with this year’s newly anointed MITcon 2008 manufacturing IT Award winners too – because the event also plays host to the MITcon Awards ceremony during lunch.

We also have IT and business consultants on hand from the vendor and analyst community, able to discuss your specific issues and help you with solutions that could make that vital difference.

Who are you?

You could be a managing director or CEO concerned with business objectives and strategy, a finance director who steers the company economics, or a manager responsible for IT, supply chain, operations, production or design. You may be charged with implementing a Lean manufacturing programme and even have an IT project in progress or in prospect.
