It’s a place to share real strategies that are transforming manufacturing from the ground up, connecting people, data, and decisions where they matter most."

Why The Connected Worker Exchange?

Manufacturing today demands a connected workforce capable of operating, maintaining, and troubleshooting complex operations and digital systems. The plant floor, once dominated by manual processes, is now becoming a realm of interconnected devices, digital twins, analytics and AI. With operational complexity and the workforce skills gap at an all time high, there has never been a more critical time for plant leaders to invest in their workforce.

Join us at The Connected Worker Exchange, where every year the most senior-level executives gather in an intimate, invitation-only setting to address the biggest digital workforce challenges facing manufacturing plants today.
