Create a successful globalization strategy

Globalization means more markets, more products and more partners. Opportunities expand, but so do the challenges for global manufacturers. Companies are selling their products around the world and are facing competition from a growing number of global players.

Globalization will be the focus of the ARC Advisory Groups’s 12th Annual Orlando Forum, “Winning Strategies and Best Practices for Global Manufacturers.” The event will be Feb. 4-7 at the Rosen Centre Hotel in Orlando, FL.

The event will feature a series of manufacturer-only sessions on Monday, Feb. 4, focusing on service-oriented architecture, benchmarking for automation and control systems and for plant performance systems, and for discrete manufacturers. Two days of knowledge-based seminars follow, with speakers from industry-leading companies such as Chevron, Honeywell Automation, Siemens, Schneider Electric, Yokogawa and ABB.
