Testimonials

Peter Krempin

CEO

United Terra Enterprise PLC

There are a lot of professional people here that come across Europe, and it helps to get in 1 day or 2 days a lot of professional meetings set up. And nobody needs to travel somewhere else, so that helps for all involved parties here. That saves time of a lot of people.

Jan Willems

Director Project Controls - Fluor Fellow of Data Integration

Fluor

It's cool! I mean, you meet a lot of companies that are either working with us, partnering with us or are potential customers.

Ranjit Panchal

Vice President - Marketing

Martin Roshan

Chief Revenue Officer

As one of the clear differentiator is the account management, and I think this is something very unique that we have experienced with AUTOMA Congress.

Helmut Schuller

Owner / CEO

SCHULLER & Company GmbH

I never experienced, let's say, having a dedicated people who are really supportive in whatever we need. So if I wanna talk to someone, specific customer, if I wanna talk to a specific partner, potential partner, whatsoever, this team is doing everything to make it happen. This is brilliant, outstanding.

Giannis Meletiadis

Deputy CTO

Zarifopoulos S.A.

The fact that the personal manager really helps you structure even before the event, what your goals are, what you need to do, and how to act on them. So I can say that I'm very satisfied with how things have evolved.

Gianluca Rospo

Head of Asset Management & Shut Down Development

Bonatti S.p.A.

This is not our first time at AUTOMA. So, we see also a big benefit, first of all because you have the opportunity to check new ideas, new technologies, that are popping up to the ears. We also exchange ideas with other colleagues, our competitors, also other pierce of the sector. So, you can also learn and take home the new way of doing buisness.

András Buti

Automation and Process Intelligence Manager

MOL Plc, Danube Refinery

Many people contacted me after the presentation. And we had very good discussions, shared experience. I shared our experience in MOL, but after the presentation with these face to face discussions I received I think 10 times more information and suggestions and advice. So, this I take with me home and integrate it to our work.

Luigi Anselmi

Head of Construction

Tecnimont SpA

AUTOMA has become a community rather than just a conference. And this is the positive thing. That means that there is something, there is a strong foundation, upon which people believe.

Bojan Dimitrijevic

Digital Transformation Strategy Manager

It is a wonderful opportunity to be a part of this big group of professionals, especially in oil&gas industry, and to see what the trends are, how my colleagues in the industry are evolving, what they are doing in terms of advancing the technologies, making it more accesible to the market itself.

Rocío Vega Martínez

The congress has been great. We have been coming for a few years now and we really enjoy the format, between how the coffee breaks are done with the technology room and the vendors on display, but also the presentations drive the interest and the engagement, and that enables us to have a conversation that is relevand to our needs.
