2017 in Review

 

               Some of our Generis staff at the American Medical Device Summit

Generis Group is celebrating another great year! We produced seven events in 2017, facilitating connections and sparking conversations around relevant topics in manufacturing, supply chain, biomanufacturing, pharmaceutical outsourcing, and the medical device, automotive, and aerospace & defense industries.

A big highlight for us was being ranked number 11 on the 2017 STARTUP 50 ranking of Canada’s Top New Growth Companies by Canadian Business. This growth was reflected in our events, which have gotten bigger and better every year. We are so thankful to all the speakers, sponsors and delegates that came out this year to share ideas and make these events a success.

We are gearing up for 2018 already, kicking it off with the American Manufacturing Summit, taking place from March 27th-28th in Lombard, IL. This year’s Summit provides an opportunity to examine key case studies around how workforce management, lean manufacturing, process improvement and automation are being rolled out in the world’s best facilities. Speaker highlights include VPs from Caterpillar Inc., the Boeing Company, 3M, and GE Appliances.

Hot on the heels of that will be our American Supply Chain Summit, taking place from April 9-10 in Dallas, TX. Key themes include profitability & risk management, cost optimization, disruptive technology, and workforce management. We are excited to welcome speakers from McDonald’s, PepsiCo, Valvoline, Kellogg’s, and Diageo.

New to the Generis Group lineup is the American Packaging Summit, which will be held in Chicago from June 6-7. We are thrilled to have representatives from both Coke and Pepsi on the agenda, as well as other diverse brands such as Mondelez, GSK, Estee Lauder, and Dell. Some key themes will be innovation in packaging – including digital printing and smart packaging – as well as sustainability, and packaging for success in e-commerce.

We hope to see you out at one of our 2018 events!
