Munich Electronics Summit will bring CEOs together at Productronica

The Munich Electronics Summit is aimed at CEOs and Managing Directors of leading international groups and large medium-sized enterprises from all parts of the World. During an exclusive discussion in an informal and private atmosphere followed by a dinner, the business leaders will meet to talk about strategies, ideas, future trends and general political conditions within the electronics industry. Ram Charan will give these discussions important impetus.

The CEO Round Table is a public podium discussion with leading figures from the worldwide electronics industry and has long been a permanent fixture at productronica and electronica. It is being retained in its current form and is now part of the Munich Electronics Summit. One new feature is a keynote address to be given by Ram Charan before the discussion.

The mentor of the Munich Electronics Summit is Dr. Jürgen Gromer, a member of the Supervisory Board and former President of Tyco Electronics. Klaus Dittrich, host and CEO of Messe München: “As the organizer of productronica, we are delighted to offer the CEOs of worldwide leading companies a unique opportunity with the Munich Electronics Summit to exchange information and experiences at a personal level. This event is one of the major innovations which we are introducing at productronica and proves that the trade fair is becoming increasingly more important as an international meeting-point for managers from the electronics industry. The Munich Electronics Summit will become an annual event held during productronica and electronica which are staged alternately.“

The Munich Electronics Summit will take place on the first day of productronica, which will open its doors at the New Munich Trade Fair Centre from November 10 to 13, 2009.
