This conference will allow the attendees to immerse themselves in ideas—some new, some reinforcing already known truths—to help them better prepare for meeting and beating the competition. In addition to the excellent papers, panel discussions and other formal exchanges, there will be plenty of time for networking and sharing with both old and new acquaintances. MARCON 2011 also includes an outstanding Exhibit Area of leading solution providers to give attendees a fully integrated view of what’s happening today in reliability and maintenance.
