Technia PLM Innovation Forum – the largest PLM event in the Nordics – is our annual main event, focusing on the whole spectrum of future ideas for Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) and product development.

This all day event is an opportunity to learn more about the concrete benefits of a PLM solution from a number of speakers, representing some of the most innovative companies in the world. Additionally, there will be a variety of breakout sessions covering PLM for small, medium and large enterprises – aimed at different industries.

2008 the Innovation Forum attracted about 300 participants to share knowledge of PLM and listen to keynote speakers.  One third of them were from outside the Nordics just like many of the speakers. Review a follow-up from that event here. Technia PLM Innovation Forum, also last year held at Grand Hôtel in Stockholm, is where international PLM executives and professionals meet and learn!

Some words from Jonas Gejer, Vice President and Director Sales & Marketing, Technia:

“This year’s focus is how to gain market share with PLM in tough times, and I’m welcoming you to join us this day to exchange experiences, listen to many companies that clearly are World Class. Our ambition is that all delegates receive valuable ideas and insights that will help them to become winner in times of a tough market.”
