EMVA Vision Night & VISION Show – Success Stories!
Jochem Herrmann, EMVA President, and Sayed Soliman representing the main sponsor MaxxVision, had the pleasure to welcome nearly 120 attendees for the traditional Vision Night. The Restaurant Plenum located right in the city centre of Stuttgart was well prepared to receive the machine vision community. In a casual setting VISION exhibitors and visitors exchanged ideas and expectations looking forward to three exciting trade show days.
With nearly 10.000 visitors the VISION show again grew significantly and confirmed to be the worldwide leading trade show for our industry.
At the EMVA organised International Vision Standards Booth this year the GenICam 10 years anniversary was highlighted. But also all other presented Standard activities were well received and interested visitors frequently discussed the new developments with the experts.
“We are very happy that all our proposed networking events around the VISION Show were so well attended. Looking forward we announced the brand new “Embedded VISION Europe”, conference taking place first time 12-13 October 2017 in Stuttgart, and got very positive feedback regarding this new EMVA initiative.” said Thomas Lübkemeier, EMVA General Secretary.
