If you turn to pages 30 to 31 in this issue, you will see the program for the 2006 conference. We are looking for processor-executives to make brief presentations on topics ranging from innovation in manufacturing and automation implementation projects to energy issues, maintenance strategies and food safety technologies. If your area of expertise lies in one of these areas, I hope you will contact me about being a presenter.
At Food Automation and Manufacturing 2006, you can expect to find more than 300 food and beverage industry professionals coming together under one roof to discuss the industry's challenges in a very relaxed and open atmosphere that encourages problem-solving and networking.
