Not only the figures but also the quality of the visitors give the measure of the success of the event. Particularly high, in fact, the participation of OEMs, major automation users. Confirmed too the growth in the presence of end users, motivated by the Food&Beverage and Pharma&Beauty round tables organized with the support of many organizations that shared their experiences and expectations towards the strengthening and modernization of production processes in view of “Industria 4.0”.
