PLM Innovation Live launched by MarketKey

LONDON, ENGLAND, April 15, 2011

The 21st of April 2011 will see MarketKey launch PLM Innovation Live, an unbiased and end-user driven information sharing platform connecting manufacturers globally across a diverse set of industries to share and discuss Product Lifecycle Management best practice.

PLM Innovation Live consists of a year-round calendar of hour-long weekly interactive web seminars available live and on-demand, presented by a diverse roster of world class speakers including:

John Hodgson, Director Global Innovation Pipeline Management at The Coca-Cola Company
Dagmar Chlosta, Senior Vice President Project & Process Management at Adidas
Andre Radon, Vice President IT PLM at Continental Automotive GmbH

The presentations provide valuable insight through cross-industry PLM case studies, covering implementation best practice, virtual design, data management and the processes, tools and people challenges that a successful PLM programme tackles.

The sessions are fully interactive and include 15 minutes dedicated to Q&A with questions drawn from the audience or posed in advance by members. This provides organisations worldwide with an unrivalled source of online PLM content free from vendor influence.

Member companies, such as Mars, Weston Aerospace, and Shire Pharmaceuticals, gain access so that their entire team can benefit from the sessions at their convenience for a full year. Individuals from diverse functions within member companies have already registered including Engineering, R&D, IT, Operations, NPD, Supply Chain and Marketing.

Will Milling, Director at MarketKey commented that "At the PLM Innovation Congress it became clear from talking with delegates that there was a widespread desire amongst end-user practitioners for consistent access to real life PLM case studies free from any sales agenda."

"PLM Innovation Live provides this by allowing companies to benchmark their product development with their peers, enhance their PLM learning across their businesses and improve their capacity for cost effective innovation."
