International Vision Night 2012 was well received
|
|
The International Vision Night 2012, the popular EMVA networking event
on the evening prior to the VISION show in Stuttgart, was well received
by the more than 100 participants. The EMVA together with its guests
from Europe and all over the world the new headquarters in
Barcelona/Spain and with Spanish flair has set the mood for the upcoming
EMVA conference next year in the capital of Catalonia.
The
location for the networking party with tapas and Spanish pop flamenco
band “Diego´s Canela” could not have been better: Situated in the heart
of the city and part of the state parliament, the “Plenum” with its
glass walls offered a magnificent view on the Stuttgart castle with its
gardens, the opera and the city lake. Prior to all the upcoming busy
days at the trade show, the Vision Night was a perfect mixture of
networking and celebrating in a relaxed atmosphere. For the
international machine vision scene this was definitely the place to
meet. |

Lisbon meeting sets the course for independent legal entity
The
European Machine Vision Association (EMVA) has set the course for future
growth of the organization with the goal to strengthen the current
association activities and to build up additional support for all EMVA

the 10th EMVA Business Conference 2012 in Lisbon/Portugal, the Executive
Committee was mandated to transform the EMVA in an independent legal
entity as a non-for-profit association. This will improve the visibility

its members in the future. ... >> read more
