The pillars or our annual global events are Network, Learn and Innovate \u2013 this year year we touched on them all, and we added EAT to that list!<\/p>\n<h3>Let\u2019s start with the networking<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-6060\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/ZIW-America-Networking-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"ZIW America Networking\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" \/>We\u2019ll get to the good stuff in a bit, but for now, let&#8217;s focus on the networking. Right from the start at the welcome reception there was a palpable energy with this group. Maybe it was the sunshine and relaxing atmosphere at the Coronado Marriott Resort &amp; Spa, maybe it was the margaritas, or maybe it was the mingling with colleagues, reuniting with those customers that you only see once a year, and chatting with the Zuken team\u2026we\u2019ll go with that. Whatever it was, this group was a friendly bunch and wasted no opportunity to get to know one another and share what they have in common, be it software, design challenges, or their favorite craft brew.<\/p>\n<p>On the second day participants could\u00a0mingle with our exhibiting partners to learn more about how their solutions fit into their existing Zuken environment. This year we introduced the Expert Bar where customers could bring their toughest design questions and sit with one of our technical experts to get answers. This was also a great\u00a0place to go to see some of the newer software features in full action.\u00a0Expert Bar is a new favorite and you can count on its return next year.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Introducing Zuken University<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>On the learning front, we shook it up a bit this year and incorporated Zuken University classes into the mix.\u00a0These classes were geared toward what\u2019s new in the 2016 software releases and really honed in on the how-to with live demos from our technical experts. Classes from customers and third party partners rounded out the agenda to really give participants a broad view of how they can use Zuken\u2019s software in their own environments. And yes, we read the surveys \u2013 the classes need to be longer next year \u2013 we\u2019ve got it covered, don\u2019t worry! In the meantime, we have incorporated this request\u00a0into the Zuken University classes\u00a0at the ZIW event in the UK coming up in October.<\/p>\n<p>We also had the privilege of hosting Jeff Salz as our keynote speaker. Wow \u2013 talk about inspirational, this guy was the real deal! He talked about the adventure of change, and while I\u2019m quite sure that although few of us have ever trekked with a Sherpa, many of us were able to apply some of his observations to our personal lives and work circumstances.<\/p>\n<h3>\u00a0Cummins takes award for innovation<\/h3>\n<p>When it comes to our third pillar, innovation, I look to the customers who presented over the course of the two-day event sharing details about their own design challenges. Cummins was the recipient of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zuken.com\/en\/news\/press-releases\/2016\/04-cummins\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Zuken Innovation Award<\/a>, in part for their innovation in the deployment of a modular design methodology. Bill Meyer accepted that award and shared a bit about what the company does and how they use Zuken\u2019s tools.<\/p>\n<p>So I said we\u2019d get to the good stuff\u2026what\u2019s a conference without food? Just like when you host a party at home and everyone gathers in the kitchen, food at a conference brings people together and gets them talking. We talked over coffee and house-made croissants on the breaks, we talked over sandwiches at lunch \u2013 and we shouldn\u2019t forget the engaging Birds of a Feather discussions that were going on too. Then we talked more over salads in a jar, meat in a bucket, veggies on a stick and bourbon-doused flaming\u00a0donut holes at the conference dinner on Wednesday!<\/p>\n<h3>\u00a0<strong>Zuken&#8217;s 40th\u00a0anniversary<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>That old? Life begins at 40 right, and that&#8217;s certainly our mantra this year. Zuken was established in 1976 and we&#8217;re stronger than ever before. So we&#8217;re celebrating all year long\u00a0&#8211; I believe the pictures say it all.\u00a0Birthday celebrations are on the agenda for all of our ZIW conferences this year so make sure you attend and get a bite of the birthday cake.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>ZIW in Europe and Japan June through to October<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>ZIW America kicked the season off, and now\u00a0we&#8217;re\u00a0busy preparing for the remainder\u00a0of the ZIW 2016 conferences around the globe.
