MX.0 Event Attendee Reviews
MX.0 Media always puts on a terrific conference that is valuable, relatable, and enjoyable!”
Smurfit Westrock
“Before attending MX.0 Southeast, my network of like-minded professionals in the manufacturing industry was limited. Participating allowed me to network with others in the manufacturing industry who shared my passion for digital technologies. The experience allowed me to compare notes withothers in my field on the lessons learned and outcomes of developing, implementing, and sustaining digital technologies in the manufacturing industry. I now have a much larger network of digital technology professionals I can share my passion with and lean on as resources.”
