Event Date: December 16, 2010
Location: Hilton Tel Aviv; Tel Aviv, Israel

Overview

The COFES Israel Forum focuses on Israel’s role as a world leader in innovation. The event is modeled after our annual spring COFES in Arizona, but with a slightly different format and focus. In addition to presentations by Cyon Research and other leading analysts, the program will include presentations and Q&A from senior industry leaders of the design software industry to discuss their vision and thoughts on future directions. The idea is to shine a light on areas where there is a significant opportunity for innovation, particularly with respect to design and with respect to sustainability.

What is COFES?

COFES is an annual event owned by Cyon Research Corporation, a think-tank consulting group focusing on strategic issues of the software industry for design and engineering. Cyon Research has been bringing the unique vision of COFES to a select group of international venues where they believe there is a significant opportunity for the event to trigger a leap forward for the industry. This COFES Israel Forum follows in the footsteps of the 2006 COFES India Summit and the September 2010 COFES Russia Forum.

Who Should Attend?

COFES Israel will break ground on the issues that everyone needs to discuss, argue, and solve. Attendees will include chief officers of manufacturing, engineering, architectural, and software development companies in Israel, who understand the needs that their businesses will face in the future. They will join with the technology elite from around the world who develop, market and guide the engineering software and technology that are in use today – and in the future.

Participants invited include industry leaders from major software companies including Autodesk, Bentley, Dassault Systemes, Intergraph, PTC, Siemens, SolidWorks, Cyon Research, Cambashi and more.
