 Why Should You Attend?

Energy EdgeTECH Summit has a major emphasis on end user case studies, sharing real-world experience for the benefit of the community. Never before have so many energy edge end-users been gathered together in a single event to share their views and opinion on the benefits and challenges of deploying edge computing.

Deploying edge computing requires a multiphased technology strategy which combines leadership vision, technology investment, and timely execution.

With the continuous surge of Industrial IoT (IIoT) data – both raw and processed – driving formation and implementation of all digital business processes, the need today is for compute to be as close to where the data originates as possible. This is achieved through edge computing and local processing of the data that matters most.

By monitoring the assets at the edge, industrial companies reduce operating costs and downtime and can dispatch repairs or replace equipment components before they fail. When you consider an oil and gas operation or industrial plant, real-time data and what it can tell you is critical to operational integrity. 

Edge computing is essential for optimizing industrial data at every aspect of an operation pertinent to operational integrity. With effective edge computing, remote sites act upon the data that matters to a location’s real-time situation and how its business processes are optimized to act on insights gleaned from collected data.

The Energy EdgeTECH Summit cuts through the clutter and maps out real-world strategies, tactics, use-cases and projects for edge computing capabilities.

Industrial leaders are using edge computing to gain unprecedented insights into processes, services, and operations. While some organizations have started the journey towards building data-driven capabilities, many lack proper understanding when it comes to starting or advancing beyond trial implementations, demos and PoCs. 

Learn from leading digitalization experts who have had success in the implementation of edge computing-based solutions across a range of energy & industrial asset intensive industries. 

The Energy EdgeTECH Summit will help you to: 

• Learn from industry leaders & acquire insider knowledge on digital trends, projects, implementations, new technologies, and innovations.

• Launch effective and successful PoCs and trials for your edge program.

• Acquire new perspectives and ideas—define strategic enterprise goals for implementing edge computing and gain valuable insights applicable to your company & project needs. 

• Connect with edge computing experts and influencers—join like-minded peers who are ready to share their edge computing journey. 

• Invest in building networks—invest in yourself as you discover new ways to drive effective digital operations. 

• Create a deeper understanding of the latest tools and processes—find yourself at the forefront of building data-driven operations and learn how to reduce costs and increase efficiency. 

• Rapidly scale your edge computing program and learn from experts on how to successfully move from trials to enterprise deployment.

Which edge computing technologies and projects will add the most value and usher your energy operations into the next generation?  You will find out this October at the Energy EdgeTECH Summit in Houston, TX!
