EDITOR’S NOTE

In the editor’s note in the May/June issue, I discussed my excitement to be attending in-person events again. In addition to seeing and learning about new technology, educational sessions are critical to help you, the engineers, designers and others in the off-highway industry, stay up to date on their technical and industry knowledge.

However, because of the demands of your jobs, many of you do not have the time to attend live, in-person events. This is one reason that our team will launch the inaugural OEM Off-Highway Industry Summit. This is an online, educational event that we plan to hold every year.

This year, the dates are November 8 through November 10. See Image 1 for the tentative schedule of presentations.

In the future, if not this year, we are planning to offer professional development hour credits for some of our presentations during this event.

We hope that this summit becomes part of the content that you enjoy along with the print publication, webinars, podcasts, videos, premium content and newsletters. LDITORO@ACBUSINESSMEDIA.COM
