There was something for everyone at the 2011 Industry Summit, where over 700 people convened in Washington, D.C. for the power transmission/motion control industry’s premier networking and educational event. The three-day summit featured a combination of sessions and workshops showcasing the industry’s most relevant information and cutting-edge perspectives.

Sessions and workshops covered an array of timely topics, from ruling your inbox and building winning websites to navigating the challenging world of mergers & acquisitions. Plus, economist Alan Beaulieu of the Institute for Trend Research wowed with his economic forecast designed to help attendees make sound business decisions based on real market data.

In the spirit of relationship building, the Industry Summit also provided ample opportunities for relaxed idea exchange among supply chain partners. Attendees shared perspectives at receptions, networking lunches, golf, MD-IDEX, the Motion Control Showcase, and a closing event providing exclusive access to the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History.
