Customers from Germany, Austria and Switzerland can also register, since originally the first event for the German- speaking region was to be held in June. However, due to the pandemic, which had caused hesitation in registering, KRONEN has now decided to combine both events and offer a joint platform for all countries in autumn. Stephan Zillgith, spokesman for the Management at KRONEN said, “We have received feedback from some areas in the industry that there was currently no demand for an event. Due to the pandemic, companies are cautious at the moment, waiting to see how the situation develops - understandably, and thus, the demand has not been as high as anticipated. We are delighted with the registrations we have received and the respective interest. Naturally, registered participants will be personally advised during individual appointments. Moreover, we are therefore inviting all interested companies from Germany, Austria and Switzerland to take part in the joint international Customer Days in October.” “It is important to us at KRONEN, that interaction on a personal level and individual consultations are also possible during a purely online event. For this reason, we have question and discussion sessions after each workshop. Also, anyone who wishes is welcome to attend machine dem- onstrations as part of an individual appointment, in order to talk through their requirements or products in a live dialogue with a KRONEN expert. Naturally, our worldwide representa- tives will be available for their regional customers.”, added Zillgith. Online registration is available from mid-August. Application deadline is 24th September, 2021. www.ameft.com AMEFT 3 2021 101
