Many thought leaders from the industrial automation community will be presenting over the course of the three-day event, from a variety of industry backgrounds, with stories and expertise you can’t find anywhere else.

A makeover story is easy to spotlight because it is so visual: we can see the “before and after.” But what about when the transformation happens beneath the surface?
