The Institute of Industrial Engineers (IIE) holds the biggest industrial and systems engineering event of the year – the IIE Annual Conference. This year, SIMUL8 Corporation is proud to be sponsoring a reception on the opening day of the conference focusing entirely on simulation.

Sander Vermeulen, Head of Consulting for SIMUL8 Corporation said, “It’s an unique event that will bring together simulation experts and novices to connect, share knowledge, and discuss the role process simulation can play for Industrial Engineers in 2013.”

The IIE Annual Conference 2013 has a focus on applying the traditions and core concepts of industrial and systems engineering, to modern global issues. Simulation has been used by Industrial Engineers for over 20 years, but now leaders in the field will gather at SIMUL8’s event to discuss how this powerful tool can be applied to solve some of the current issues they face in their industries.

Delegates from some of the most prestigious universities in North America will be in attendance, alongside high ranking professionals from manufacturing, healthcare and business. As well as the opportunity to network, the evening will also provide panel discussions featuring some of the conference’s simulation experts, allowing their industry peers to find out more about how simulation can be used.

The event takes place from 3pm to 6pm on Saturday, May 18 in the conference hotel – the Caribe Hilton San Juan Hotel, in Puerto Rico. See you there!
