Testimonials

Kelly Harred

Chief Customer Officer

Imubit

There's been some very insightful speakers on stage, a very relevant topics in the industry. And as well we've seen both customers of ours here and potential customers.

Thomas Ludwig

LFO-Pool Manager

Shell Energy & Chemicals Park Rheinland

AUTOMA is a good platform to get into contact with the latest innovations and technology and digitalisation but also automation. And I think it's good for us to get a calibration where technology goes, where we are as a company and what way we want to go in the future.

Karina Fernandez

General Manager, Emerging Digital Technologies

Shell

I really appreciate that it's much more focused. And congratulations to the organising team to have brought together the right people in the industry who are focusing around solving similar problems.

Jack Albrecht

General Manager

Albrecht Software Consulting GmbH

Having a personal manager that's helping me to meet the people that I want and people that want to meet me, getting us together in only a couple of days, it's efficient, it's just makes the congress flow much easier. Because I don't spend endless time just wondering around, looking at peoples badges, trying to figure out or asking "Hey, have you seen Bob?". It's extremely efficient and I think it's an excellent unique selling point of the conference.

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

Ingenero

It's been a good interacting with a lot of people over here and learning about different technologies that are emerging.

Martin Roshan

Chief Revenue Officer

OSOS

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

NIS j.s.c. Novi Sad

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

Digitalization Manager

Reganosa Servicios

We understood a lot of things at this Congress and we have some new ideas to incorporate them in our business.

Jeff Stroh

Senior Director, Digital & Information Systems Management

McDermott

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.
