Automation Live - a new event by Datateam
D
atateam Business Media and Automation magazine are launching a new event, called Automation Live, to address the trends and challenges
currently experienced by industry. The event will be held on the 19th of October in the Grand Connaught Rooms Hotel in London. Speakers from ABB, Kuka, Bermondsey Electronics and more will be presenting, followed by a discussion with the audience. “We are delighted to introduce Automation Live – Datateam and Automation magazine are ideally positioned to provide our readers and advertisers a live platform to discuss the latest technologies and trends within the industry,” said Louise Tiller, Media Director at Datateam Business Media. “We are very proud to support this thriving industry and cannot wait to see you all in London this October.”
Open debate
Automation Live is aimed at opening up a debate with businesses about the current and future challenges they see across their sectors – and how to counteract these to continue to run smooth, profi table companies during tough times: the pandemic left many problems in its wake across all sectors, further exacerbated by wars – including that of the ongoing energy crisis, then there are the many technologies that need integrating and teaching to the workforce. In addition, current worker shortages, but also pupils who do not readily enter manufacturing and technology disciplines are another problem, all of which we will discuss at the event.
Automation Live presenters • Peter Wrigley, MD, Bermondsey Electronics: “Whilst most automation scenarios – such as manufacturing/assembly lines – require specialist instrumentation and signal-conditioning equipment, there is nearly always a need for standard test and measurement equipment to play an essential role. However, equipment vendors have diff erent preferences when it comes to programming languages and interfaces, which make integration a nightmare. Who has the time to learn these diff erent languages, plus you’re unlikely to recruit someone who is familiar with even a few of them? Why in an industry that is so hot on standardisation and in which the benefi ts of automation are so well understood is system integration still so challenging?”

geopolitical instability are seeing an increased rollout of automated technologies as companies try to ensure they can continue to operate when workers are not
