This was my third Centric Connect, and honestly, they’re different every time. The benefits I see are connecting with the people who come here — it’s great for networking — and getting insight into upcoming Centric Software releases and new solutions that might be coming down the track.
— Max Lindqvist, PLM & Traceability Specialist, New Wave Group
Since we started using Centric PLM at our company, I’ve always felt inspired to find new solutions within the system, and Centric Connect is perfect for that. It’s all about talking to other brands, learning from each other and sharing best practice. I would definitely recommend more colleagues attend!
— Pattern Maker, Outdoor & Sports Brand
We have just recently implemented PLM, so it was good to come here to connect with others and see what other options we have for phase two of the project. It’s been a really positive event — a good mix of connecting with people, seeing new things coming out in the system and looking at demos for specific applications.
— COO, Fashion & Apparel Brand
The most important topics right now are sustainability and AI, and it’s easy to see how that applies to our own company. It’s valuable to come to Centric Connect once a year and remember that there’s more to develop beyond the day-to-day operational workflows.
— Carina Nibrant, Head of Procurement, Gudrun Sjödén
It’s a real opportunity to exchange ideas with other companies, and where there’s a common challenge, there’s often a common solution. Talking about the complexities we face is the first step to solving them.
— Giacomo Viglietta, Head of IT, Philipp Plein
It was my first time attending Centric Connect, and I found it very useful and inspiring. It was a great opportunity to hear about new developments, learn what other companies are experiencing and gain perspective on what comes next. What others are doing today is often what we have already done — or what we will be doing next.
— Luca Menagardo, CIO, Dainese
It’s a great opportunity to reconnect with industry peers, gain insight into where Centric is heading and understand what’s coming next. I always come away with new ideas and a clearer view of future developments and innovation.
— Marisa Gambale, PLM & QC Expert, Herno Group
Hearing the experiences of other Centric PLM users and companies was incredibly valuable. Events like this provide a great opportunity to learn from industry professionals, exchange ideas and gain new perspectives.
— Matteo Verza, Apparel Developer Coordinator, Macron
