W HAT ’ S UNIQUE ABOUT THE UPM F ORUM ?
I
t can happen that a technology conference is big on hype, and low on practical
information needed to select, implement,
and validate technology. Presentations
can be a maze of detail, and fail to bring
clarity. The UPM Forum breaks away from
poor past practices in many ways.
F
irstly, it is much more than paper
presentations. The UPM has expert
lectures, panel discussions, and an open
forum with Q&A, dialog, and debate. To
get the full value of the UPM Forum, you
will want to participate in the conversation in-person.
S
econdly, it is a unique gathering of all
stakeholders: production data users,
project and facility staff, product and service suppliers, researchers and technology developers, academicians, and government regulators. This is important because improving the value of production
data is truly a cross-discipline endeavor.
F
inally, it is relevant and current. Driven entirely by industry volunteers, the
not-for-profit Forum focuses each year on
what is determined as the industry’s
most timely and important challenges. If
there is an issue you want to see included, you can make it happen by being present and raising your voice.
"If you can not measure it, you can not improve it." – Lord Kelvin
