EPLAN Forum 2024
Thank you for attending the EPLAN Forum 2024 in Cologne
We hope you had many personal contacts and interesting discussions from which you were able to take valuable information home with you. As you can see, this year we have chosen a different way of providing the information presented. As usual, you will of course receive all the presentations and the results of the Meet & Match after the event. We still have to process this and will do so a few days after the event. We ask for your understanding. Just check this page again in a few days. It's worth it!
In addition, we have further information for you that we believe could be helpful in your decision-making process. These are, for example, reference reports, publications, or further background information on the topics of the forum.
We have also created a collection of links with non-EPLAN content. These are pages that we EPLANers find particularly interesting for our subject areas at EPLAN and which could also be of general interest or benefit to you.
If you personally also have interesting websites, we would be delighted if you could let us know about them in the feedback area. We would then also make your links available here for all forum participants. As you can see: Networking goes on.
Thank you very much and see you at the next EPLAN Forum 2025.
