Six hundred people from the power transmission/motion control (PT/MC) industry came together in Chicago October 21-24, 2015, where tools and information to Spark a Movement: Inspire. Motivate. Lead. were delivered through cutting edge presentations, the latest in business and market information and a venue to help build the networks that are so critical to business succes. Many predict the conference will have lasting reverberations as industry leaders take home what they learned and implement new ideas at home in their industrial distribution and manufacturing businesses from over fourteen countries.

 “This conference was about two things: making connections and equipping attendees to become game-changing catalysts within their organizations. Under the ‘Spark a Movement: Inspire, Motivate, Lead’ theme, participants enjoyed several days of non-stop relationship building while concurrently being educated by four fantastic keynote speakers. Making connections also included those between participants and our industry Association, which will ensure we can collectively continue to support a strong and thriving power transmission/ motion control industry,” said Elliot Wilson, president, Lovejoy Inc., and chair of the 2015 Industry Summit Planning Committee.
