Everybody always told me that the South African Wonderware conference was really good and that was one of the reasons I wanted to go. I have to say that it wasn’t good. It was fantastic. I don’t know if it was because of the twentieth anniversary but it was really amazing. The organization was spectacular and the content really good.
I had the possibility to spend some more days with the guys from Bytes that I met during my previous trip fro the MESA training and to better appreciate them. They are all wonderful guys, good technicians and nice friends. I really loved the time we spent together and all the conversations we had.
It’s difficult to say what I bring home from the conference. Many things of course of several types. One of them is for sure the strange feeling to meet some of the Wonderware people (especially Thommy and Didier) in three different continents in just two month and, as Thommy said, never in one of our own countries. That gives you the sensation of how small the world has become and of how many opportunities there are around ourselves and how they are reachable. I was presenting my company’s success story fro the third time from November, and the two previous ones were in Paris and Nashville. If someone did told me that it was going to happen just a few years ago I really wouldn’t believe. I have to say I’m a little proud of that.
