Essex Furukawa held its first ever virtual technology conference on Jan. 19 for North American and European customers as well as a second event on Jan. 21 for the Asia Pacific markets. Both events were well attended by customers across the globe and featured our global leadership groups discussing magnet wire trends and new technology from Essex Furukawa.
The highlights of the event were presentations from Matt Leach, Vice President New Product Introduction and Innovation and Masakazu Mesaki, Senior Vice President Global Research and Development about MagForceX® Innovation and R&D advancements.
Each event went to its allotted 90-minute mark following a very informative question and answer session with our leadership teams, including CEO Brian Kim.
The event opened with the following video, setting the pace for what was a forward-thinking conference.
“As the video stated there is a rich history for both Furukawa Electric and Essex Magnet Wire but that is exactly what it is: history,” Kim said at the time. “Together as Essex Furukawa we are looking to build the future through investment in technology, and innovation.”
For those who were able to attend, we appreciate setting aside the 90-minutes of your day. If you were unable to attend but would love more details about what was discussed please reach out to your local sales rep for more information.
