The EMEA Power Transmission Distributors Association (EPTDA) announces Rome as the host city of its 2017 Annual Convention in September 2017. Founded in 1998, EPTDA – the leading organisation in the EMEA for leading distributors and manufacturers of mechanical power transmission and motion control (PT/MC) products – is celebrating its memorable 20thanniversary annual convention in 2017.
“20 years ago, a small group of visionary and ambitious PT/MC leaders laid the foundations of EPTDA. Today, we are the leading industry association and one of the most trusted brand names across Europe, the Middle East and Africa, amongst the leaders of distribution and manufacturing of PT/MC products and services. We are incredibly proud of our journey so far, and looking forward to celebrating this beautiful milestone with EPTDA’s founders, partners, supporters and members. We couldn’t have picked a better destination than Rome, to mark this historic celebration,” said Hans Hanegreefs, Executive Vice President of EPTDA.
EPTDA’s Annual Conventions are considered one of the most strategic, informative, executive and credible platforms for the industry decision makers to meet every year. The association today represents 252 leading companies from 34 countries worldwide, representing 21.7 billion euros annual sales volume and 280,000 employees.
“Rome 2017 and our 20th annual convention anniversary celebration is a very important milestone for EPTDA. Not just for the years of our existence but what we have achieved in this short span and what we aspire to become in the future”, added Hans Hanegreefs. “Our 2017 annual convention will be THE networking event of the year – thanks to our loyal members and volunteers. As always, we are attracting a great selection of convention speakers. We are prepared to take our highly popular MD-IDEX (Manufacturer-Distributor Idea Exchange) meeting sessions to the next level. We are preparing for a fantastic social entertainment program for our members and their guests, spouses and partners. And all this and so much more in the gorgeous setting of one of the most admired luxury hotels of the world – the Rome Cavalieri Waldorf Astoria hotel,” added Hans Hanegreefs.
