WHAT’S NEW for CPES2018?
Past attendees of CPES have spoken and we have listened. CPES2018 delivers more of what you need to build your business or advance your R&D:
- More time to network, to develop the partnerships that are key to your success.
- Fewer product-focused presentations and more industry panels that tackle the challenges facing your organization.
- Greater focus on helping startups and early-stage companies with the addition of a Startup Launchpad to our existing Startup of the Year Award and mentoring program.
- An emphasis on supporting diversity across the industry ecosystem with our Women in STEM program.
WHY SHOULD you ATTEND?
What hasn’t changed is how we help you make contacts that matter – this distinguishes CPES2018 from other industry events.
Nowhere else can you find such an impressive concentration of senior decision makers and innovative organizations from across the global supply chain in such an intimate and inviting setting ideal for networking and business development. We embrace diversity in all its dimensions, to build a truly robust industry sector that values ability above all else.
Rub elbows, share ideas and gain insights that will make a difference for your team and your organization:
Building a Robust Ecosystem Through Diversity
We support diversity and recognize its value to drive an industry forward. The organizing committee for CPES2018 continues our tradition of having strong female leadership, which is reflected on intelliFLEX’s Board of Directors and Advisory Board. A Women in STEM program at CPES2018 will feature our first Women in STEM Award, as well as a special session where women in our industry will discuss how best to nurture greater female involvement across our industry ecosystem through intelliFLEX programs.
