Loveland, CO February 16, 2009 – Longview Advisors, organizers of the annual Collaboration & Interoperability Conference and Exhibition (CIC), today announced the opening of registration for the 2009 event, which takes place May 18-20 in Estes Park, Colorado.  Software, manufacturing, and engineering professionals are welcome to sign up at: www.3DCIC.com.

The event website also features the full the two-and-a-half-day schedule of the 2009 conference.  This year’s summit offers attendees a wide choice of industry speaker presentations, expert panel discussions, and interactive workshops, in addition to many professional networking opportunities.
 
Now in its fifth year, the CIC international event brings together experts and executives from a broad range of discrete manufacturing industries, as well as representatives from the government and defense communities, to discuss the latest strategies and solutions in collaboration and interoperability. The only vendor-neutral conference in the world addressing these critical topics, the CIC provides a unique opportunity to interact, learn, and share experiences with thought leaders of the industry. 

Senior Technology Manager at Black & Decker Glenn Gise will make the introductory keynote this year, Large Scale PDM Migration in a Global Enterprise.  Gise will be the first of many top industry visionaries who will outline the current challenges and solutions in design data management over the course of the event. Beyond the formal lectures, the 2009 agenda also features five lively roundtable discussions among expert panelists:  

Best Practices in Data Exchange & Migration
Quality Validation & Certification: Requirements & Solutions
Collaboration Sounds Great, But How Can We Do It Better?
Why Do We Translate and Re-Create CAD Data, and When Can We Live Without It?
