Global Partner Academy 2016 - Looking Back

The Global Partner Academy 2016 (GPA 2016) was held from June 15-16 in Munich, Germany. This was a well visited event by many members of the COPA-DATA Partner Community. With the motto “Growing Together” the participants of GPA 2016 were given an open and straight forward insight into COPA-DATA and zenon.

Our target of GPA 2016 was to provide all our participants two inspiring, informational and useful days in true COPA-DATA spirit. With many parallel sessions, one-on-one meetings and open discussions during the breaks, we could see that the foundation of many new business opportunities were opened up.
 

Well visited – well enjoyed

GPA 2016 was well visited with over 180 participants from 27 countries. Our partners had the possibility to meet and talk directly with the people behind the product development, marketing and much more. This enabled direct answers to whatever questions they had, as well as the possibility to give direct feedback on potential future product development.

Some of the expressions of the two days were “Very useful presentations. Great Atmosphere. Outstanding People”, “It was the best opportunity to find out more about zenon”, “Awesome to have technically-focused discussions that bring engineers and integrators together”.
 

Different sessions for different needs

The agenda was divided into two main blocks that were broken down into a variety of sub-topics. Within the “Smart Factory” block the attendees had a close look at automated engineering, mobile apps, Predictive Analytics, the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), cloud technologies and Big Data integration with zenon. The further block covering “Substation Automation” focused on applications with zenon in the Energy industry with an in-depth focus on Automated Engineering as well as topics such as IEC 61850 Edition 2, and command sequences.
 

All sessions were recorded and the presentations as well as the video recordings are available in the partner login area on the COPA-DATA homepage.
