What this is
IMTS brings the whole manufacturing world to Chicago, and we will be there for the week. Our team lives in the messy middle of manufacturing operations — quoting, scheduling, service, field, and the data underneath all of it — and we build on the Microsoft stack.
Come find us to talk about what AI actually does on a shop floor today: where agents earn their keep, where they do not, and what it takes to get from a demo to something your people trust. No pitch deck required.
If you are walking McCormick Place and want a straight answer about Dynamics 365, Power Platform, Copilot, Azure, or Fabric, grab thirty minutes with us. And join us for a drink Wednesday night.
Why come
- A candid read on where AI is already paying off in manufacturing
- Real examples from Dynamics 365, Power Platform and Fabric builds
- Time with people who have shipped this, not just sold it
Who you'll meet
Noel Thompson
Solution VP, AI & CRM Solutions
Ask Noel about AI agents in service and sales, connecting Dynamics 365 to the plant, and what a Copilot rollout looks like when it has to survive real users.
