DP Technology's annual conference is back in 2018, and for the first time in its 15-year history, it will be held in the Midwest. After alternating between the East and West Coasts of the U.S., ESPRIT World 2018 will be located in Indianapolis, IN, June 11-15, making the event - formerly known as ESPRIT World Conference - more accessible to customers in America's heartland. The event will take place at the Indianapolis Marriott Downtown.
As with previous years, ESPRIT World will be a time for training, networking with peers in the industry and hearing about new technologies and the future of ESPRIT.
"When we first held ESPRIT World in 2003, we never dreamed it would evolve into what it is today: a vital, highly anticipated annual event that is attended by hundreds of customers from around the world," said Paul Ricard, President of DP Technology. "We are excited to bring ESPRIT World to Indianapolis and be closer to our customers from the Midwest and East Coast, who have often had to travel greater distances to attend our events in the past. As always, we have an outstanding class and speaker lineup this year, and we hope to welcome more attendees than ever before."
Training, Learning and Networking
ESPRIT World 2018 is all about sharing the latest tips, tricks, trends and technologies with users. It allows attendees, whatever their skill level, to learn the ins and outs of ESPRIT with a customized schedule of classes on topics including mill-turn and milling techniques, wire EDM, automated programming, post processors and mold roughing and finishing. For beginners, ESPRIT World 2018 offers a weeklong boot camp option of immersive learning. Classroom training will be augmented by ESPRIT Talks given by speakers across the industry, including members of the DP Technology executive team, machine tool and technology partners and ESPRIT programmers and engineers. Attendees looking for extra assistance can sign up for one-on-one sessions with ESPRIT support engineers.
