At ACHEMA2015, ARC Advisory Group, NAMUR, and ZVEI hosted a joint forum under the name "Automation in Dialog". Diversified discussions on important issues of automation technology in the process industry were held on all five days of the exhibition.
In addition to high-quality panel discussions, visitors learned at "Meet the Experts" about the current status of process industry topics and discussed them in a relaxed atmosphere in the foyer. Hot topics included modular automation, IT security and energy efficiency as well as current developments in Industrie 4.0 and IIoT.

On June 18, ARC Advisory Group's David Humphrey moderated a panel discussion on "How important is Industrie 4.0 for the process industry?" To find the right answers to these questions, David was was joined on the panel by industry experts Dr. Peter Wenzel from PROFIBUS, Dr. Thorsten Pötter from NAMUR, Klaus Koch from CAT Consulting and Stefan Hoppe from OPC Foundation.
