Let me start by saying simply this: I wish I could be there. Sincerely. David Prawel is one of the most knowledgeable and engaging industry consultants I know, so I feel quite confident in saying that a keynote presentation entitled “Cornerstones of Innovation”, given by the likes of Prawel, is bound to be particularly thought-provoking and insightful.
But Prawel’s keynote is only the beginning. By attending this one-day SME-sponsored event, “CAD Data Exchange: Productivity Through Interoperability,” attendees are sure to come away with a more informed view of not just the issues surrounding interoperability - but to gain practical advice and to learn about industry best practices in the area of successful CAD data exchange.
Interoperabiity – while falling far short of being considered glamorous or sexy – remains a very popular topic among users, and for good reason. Without it, the headaches are numerous, and lack of interoperability can actually serve as a competitive dis-advantage for companies trying to manage product design and development initiatives globally.
So, my suggestion to you is this: if interoperability is at all something that even remotely affects you, sign up for this one if you can. You won’t regret it.
