8 Collaborative Automation Partners specially selected for their specific OEM offer (including; Acksys, Bihl & Wiedemann, connectBlue, Fil Control,
IXXAT, Micelect, Scaime and Vishay Nobel) had the opportunity to show their Collaborative Automation solutions to more than 700 Schneider Electric OEM customers coming
from 23 countries.
Reporting from Initi@tive event
The event was held in Monaco, at the magnificent Grimaldi Forum, on December the 3rd and the 4th, starting with a
breathtaking opening session highlighting how Schneider Electric helps its customers to achieve more whilst using less of our common planet and make the most of their
energy. Michel Crochon, Executive Vice President Automation Business Unit, opened the event.
During the event, our guests had access to a fantastic 4,000 sqm exhibition hall overlooking the Mediterranean sea. They had a unique
opportunity to discover, share and learn with our 120 Schneider Electric experts from around the world, together with our CAPP partners representatives demonstrating how our
automation solutions could bring a significant advantage for their Packaging, Material Handling, Hoisting, Lift, Textile and HVAC applications.
Our guests discovered many applications that would not exist without Schneider Electric automation and energy efficient solutions: from a snow
machine, a packaging robot and a gantry crane, to gym treadmill and a kitchen mixer.
In addition to that busy agenda, 51 conferences and the Automation Demo center were available to our guests to go into more details on many subjects.
