Very good! We had good meetings, which then progressed to the lunch meetings where we had a lot more questions regarding the topic of RFID and traceability. It went very well.
The summit has been fantastic! We’ve had great meetings with Tier 1s, OEMS, and have gotten great feedback from a lot of leaders who have been in the industry for many years. So it’s been very helpful for our company!"
This has been a great summit. I’ve been to other conferences and the activity of communication and bringing people to our booth to have a conversation has been amazing. We really appreciate that and we’ll be back!
We’ve been doing the Generis Summits for four years now. The first two years were virtual. They have been really beneficial to us because the customers that we really need to reach within the organizations typically will be somebody outside of an organization silo. They’ll have some kind of oversight or visibility over multiple functions in an organization which starts with the design group but can lead into quality and manufacturing. So far a Generis conference, it really gives us access to these individuals and we have the ability to see what’s important to that industry at this point in time and share our insights with them and really get a good transfer of knowledge.
It was a great experience. We had a lot of really productive conversations with engineering leaders as well as other business leaders that rely on the engineering team [...] A really good two-day event!
