Digital Product Creation in the Real World

In our industry today expectations for 3D are very high, with many organizations having aggressive Digital Product Creation (DPC) goals. But what is DPC? How do we benefit from 3D? How can you leverage 3D & standardisation for better business in 2024?

The challenges of fit approval in 3D are often overlooked and under-appreciated by European brands and SME companies. Our new European seminar is intended to provide a candid overview of the common topics and challenges in DPC and how to scale digitization across the value chain. The sessions are designed to be interactive, highlighting best practices and solving ‘real world’ problems in collaboration with industry peers.

Alvanon will conduct a 3-part event over 2 days in Amsterdam at the W Hotel Amsterdam.
COST: €795 per single seat, or bring a team member and get two seats for €1295.
