11:30am – 12:30pm	Welcome from Senior Leadership / Networking Lunch
12:30pm – 1:10pm	The light at the end of the tunnel might still be a train OEMs no longer have the needed bench strength to cover current and future market needs, and they are turning to partners for support. While OEMs are experts at designing, building and delivering machines and equipment, success will be determined by how well you prepare for what the future holds. What will be the impact of cybersecurity, regulatory compliance in all the regions you serve, AI developments and data science practices? In this session, we’ll explore ways to prepare.
1:10pm – 1:50pm	Virtual Designs and Commissioning As profit lines continue to be stressed at all OEMs, there are new opportunities to not only sustain profits, but extend efficiency and value with the use of a virtualized design. We’ll share use cases that highlight potential ROI in the design, develop, deploy and overall lifecycle management of your machine/equipment design and we’ll explore the Rockwell partnership with NVIDIA that enables large-scale simulation. While technology may help you virtually, the value generated from this approach is real.
1:50pm – 2:00pm	Break
2:00pm – 2:40pm	Data as a Differentiator With the right tools, data in your machine/equipment is transformed into additional value. Listen to one OEM’s journey to harness its machine’s data. This presentation will describe the strategy, the path they took and the technology they adopted to provide what their customers are seeking: more value from their machines.
2:40pm – 3:20pm	Rockwell’s Vision: Your path toward autonomous operations It’s always beneficial to see and understand what new technology is coming, and there’s no better place than Automation Fair.
