The global event is being held in Berlin, Germany, from 14-16 October. 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.
Industry giants AMEC and RasGas will open the customer presentations, describing how AVEVA technologies are enabling them to lead the way in the creation and management of complex digital assets. These will be followed by 16 additional case study presentations from leading EPCs, OOs and shipbuilders, including Jacobs, WorleyParsons, Foster Wheeler, Toyo Setal, AREVA, ADMA OPCO, Atkins, Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering (DSME) and Namura Shipbuilding.

Dr James Bellini, a leading Futurologist and author, will make a keynote speech on this subject and moderate the two-day event. Dr Bellini is a respected broadcaster and commentator on global social, economic and technology trends.
The Summit will also feature presentations from AVEVA’s strategic partners, Capgemini, EMC and ETAP, while other event sponsors include Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering (DSME), DotProduct and Trimble.
