BURLINGTON, ON--(Marketwired - Oct 5, 2016) - Memex Inc. ("MEMEX" or the "Company") (
IMTS is the largest trade show of its kind in North America with over 115,000+ attendees and was held in Chicago, between September 12th to the 17th. Many large businesses shop for the best solution at IMTS and hold-off making any large capital purchases until after the trade show.
"MEMEX's attendance at IMTS generated quality leads with the potential to connect thousands of machines for MEMEX over the next several years," said David McPhail, MEMEX's President and CEO. "We also had meaningful discussions with many potential industry leading partners, wanting to leverage the value offered by high-quality IIoT software, where we could jointly work with their salespeople to drive our products into major accounts."
"We've seen a major transition within the manufacturing community that shows technology adoption future," said John Rattray, Vice President of Sales. "At the last IMTS show two years ago, most manufacturers did not quite grasp the concepts of Real-Time OEE or Data-Driven Manufacturing. This year, prospects that visited our booth seemed to be far more in tune with the business value of Smart Manufacturing. The industry appears to be recognizing that IIoT technology is 'game-changing,' and they need it to stay competitive."
