AUSTIN, Texas (Feb. 2, 2012) - Online registration is now open for Emerson’s first Global Users Exchange in Europe (www.EmersonExchange.org/emea). The three-day event, aimed at existing and potential users of Emerson Process Management products and services, is being held May 29-31, 2012, at the Hotel Maritim, Düsseldorf, Germany. Delegates can either book for the full conference program or choose to attend specific days based on the agenda of events.

Delegates booking the full conference will have access to all conference presentations, courses and technical exhibition, meals, exhibition reception, and networking events. In addition, delegates who register before March 30th will benefit from a reduced “Early Bird” registration fee.

“Interest in the European Global Users Exchange has been high, and the response to the call for presentations has exceeded our expectations with over 300 abstracts being received,” said Bob Sharp, President, Emerson Process Management Europe. “We know that delegates will be looking for ways to improve energy efficiency with enhanced automation, meet new regulatory requirements, increase yields, or simply get more out of their automation investments, and many of the presentations will follow these themes.”

Tailored to meet the needs of users in Europe, the Middle East and Africa, the three-day conference will start at midday on Tuesday, May 29, and finish on Thursday, May 31. Delegates will be able to choose from around 100 themed presentations with some being simultaneously translated into German and Russian. The program also includes industry forums, technology exhibits on both evenings, and networking events where delegates can meet fellow automation professionals and process industry experts.

Shaped by users, for users, the Emerson Global Users Exchange provides a platform for customers to share their learning by delivering presentations to their colleagues. The event is managed by a Board of Directors, comprising users from a range of industries, who shape the conference content and guide the direction of the users group at large.
