2014 A3 Business Forum Draws Record Number of Attendees
ANN ARBOR, MI -- Some 450 automation industry leaders from around the world descended on the Hilton Orlando Bonnet Creek Resort for the annual Association for Advancing Automation (A3) Business Forum. A3 hosts this event in conjunction with the AIA Business Conference, MCA Business Conference, and Robotics Industry Forum, with a focus on how new and emerging technologies have created opportunities for automation professionals around the world. With growth of nearly 20% from last year's event and over 120 first-time attendees, the 2014 A3 Business Forum reached more leaders from the robotics, machine vision and motion control industries than ever before.
The A3 Business Forum started with our inaugural "First Time Attendee Primer." With so many first timers this year, we wanted to ensure our new guests were welcomed and introduced to attendees that have been coming year after year, who would help them maximize the value of the conference and make the connections that they were looking to make. The primer was a great success, the room was packed and it created a "buzz" that lasted through the rest of the week!
