14 leading ERP vendors will present their products over the 2 days of the event. Each of the ERP vendors has a page in this website with all their details, click on their logo in the Sponsors section for more information. ERP software solutions suitable for various organisation sizes, from large corporates to SME’s, will be represented.
The live demonstrations will review the ERP products based on defined scripts covering Finance, Production, Projects, Procurement, Sales Quotation, Sales High Volume and Business Intelligence & Analytics amongst others.
All vendors will take part in an ‘Elevator Pitch’ to introduce themselves. During this session vendors will present a summary of the USP’s to convince delegates why it would be a good idea to attend their presentation. However, if you would like guidance, the Lumenia team can advise you as to which sessions to attend.
You will have the opportunity to interact and ask questions to the presenters at the end of the presentation.
There will be 4 concurrent ERP product demonstrations and 3 vendor showcase presentations, you can choose which one to attend, check out the Agenda for further information.
As it is an in-person event, why not register a colleague to attend a conflicting session. We find companies get the most benefit if they bring 2+ people. Alternatively, you could arrange to meet and speak with the vendor outside of the presentation time.
Lumenia will be presenting 4 keynote speeches over the 2 days on ‘Characteristics of Successful ERP Projects’, ‘Navigating the Intersection between ERP and Digital Transformation’, ‘Key Considerations when selecting a new ERP’ and ‘Are you ERP Ready’. Check out the Agenda for further details.
We have 2 panel discussions. The first takes place at the end of Day 1 and is on ‘How AI is transforming the ERP Industry’. This consists of representatives from IFS, Infor, TEKenable and Sage. The 2nd panel discussion will take place at the end of Day 2 – the industry panelists will discuss their experiences, the most common mistakes and learnings that they encountered during their ERP project implementation. The panel discussions are always an event highlight!
