Why attend

One useful hour, then the evening.

Shop-floor data only creates value if the whole chain holds: machines that talk to each other, reliable KPIs, then AI use cases that show up in the accounts. The masterclass follows that chain end to end, with one speaker for each link.

The full chain in one hour

Connect with the OPC Foundation, measure with TEEPTRAK, create value with Sia Partners: three 20-minute talks that build on each other.

Peers facing the same trade-offs

Plant managers, industrial and operations directors: people with capex to defend and lines to keep running.

A short weekday format in central Paris

Arrive from 6 pm near the Opéra, content wraps at 8 pm, then networking drinks to keep the conversations going.

Who it is for
  • Industrial CEOs and executive committees
  • Industrial, plant and site directors
  • Operations and supply chain directors
  • Operational excellence, Lean, continuous improvement
  • Industrial data, digital and IT/OT

OPC Foundation

OPC UA, the common language of machines

Before any analysis, machines, PLCs and software must speak the same language. How the OPC UA standard makes shop-floor data accessible, secure and usable, whatever the vendor.

Once connected, data has to become a KPI teams use every day: real-time OEE, coded downtime, shop-floor routines. What turns a signal into a decision, drawn from more than 450 equipped plants.

Industry 4.0: where it started

In November 2019, TEEPTRAK brought manufacturers and experts together at L'Étoile Business Center in Paris around one question: “Technology, connectivity and management: the winning triad of Industry 4.0”. Seven years on, the question has changed scale: it is no longer about connecting a few machines, but turning shop-floor data into value with AI.
