ConnextCon 2020 in Review and Resources On Demand
Sarah Holloway & Susana Perez : November 12, 2020
All event organizers are familiar with the rush you get from seeing all your hard work come to life after months and months of planning, logistics and execution. We frankly hadn’t expected to feel that elusive sensation this year, given the cancellation of traditional in-person events. But following the success of our first all-virtual ConnextCon, we somehow managed to get there anyway! At first solely practical, the transition from big in-person tradeshows and conferences to more targeted and tailored web events around the world has had the unexpected benefit of bringing us closer to our customers than ever before.
At this point in the final quarter of 2020, we have completed more than 50 virtual events, including webinars, virtual meetups and Tech Talks. But without a doubt, the most amazing experience was our worldwide ConnextCon event!
For those unfamiliar, ConnextCon is the most important event we host over the course of the year. It’s an opportunity for RTI users, developers and industry partners to share the latest tips, trends and technical information around RTI Connext® DDS, the world’s largest software framework for smart machines and real-world systems.
This year, the virtual approach allowed us to host two conferences in one, divided into two worldwide regions: US/Americas and EMEA/APAC. Because of this, we were able to present a top-level agenda with esteemed guest speakers from different countries, free of geographical and scheduling barriers.
We were delighted to feature Industry Expert sessions from Stuart Kozlick, CEO of Puzzle Medical Devices and KT Neumann, Founder and Investor of KTN GmbH. And we would like to sincerely thank our presenters Dreamscape, Veoneer, LMCO, Daronmont, GE Healthcare, Kratos, and Rivian for graciously providing excellent presentations throughout.
