Conferences: Our Participation in Leading Industry Events
ADDED VALUE
Networking and best practices
Those who partner with Odego not only benefit from our solutions but also become part of a strong network of leading industrial companies, technology partners, and trade associations. Conferences are where our network thrives, grows, and creates real value – for us, our customers, and our partners.
CONFERENCES
Why conferences are crucial for us
The opportunity to exchange expertise with other companies, access to the latest best practices – often initiated and co-developed by us – and direct dialogue with industry users make conferences an indispensable platform for us.
We want to learn from one another, move forward together, and tackle current challenges in product development, digitalization, and managing complexity as a team.
In doing so, it is particularly important to us to actively contribute our own best practices to the community – openly, practically, and on equal footing.
Our mission: to equip customer teams not only with tools and methods, but also with access to the industry’s best expertise. That’s why we bring our customers into our network – to partners, thought leaders, and our community.
EVENT FORMATS
Shaping the future of the industry: Odego at trade events
Odego regularly participates in relevant trade events and industry gatherings as an attendee, speaker, or organizer.
Regular discussions on topics such as product management, variant management, forecasting, and digitalization in the mechanical and plant engineering sector.
We attend relevant events to share information about methods, best practices, and software solutions such as Cquenz.
Our most important event format: The Industry Forum is the gathering place for our network.
INDUSTRY FORUM
The Industry Forum: exchange that inspires
The Industry Forum is the gathering place of our network—a space where people, topics, and ideas come together on equal footing.
Since 2017, we have hosted the forum annually in Hamburg with the aim of fostering interdisciplinary exchange among specialists and executives from product management, development, and corporate leadership.
The focus is not on delivering messages, but on thinking, discussing, and developing ideas together.
Whether it’s modular development, variant management, product configuration, or the role of technologies like genAI or IoT: At the Industry Forum, these topics are explored in a practical, open, and application-oriented way—with plenty of room for questions, honest insights, and tangible takeaways.
What makes the forum special is its collaborative atmosphere: here, new ideas emerge, genuine partnerships for exchange are formed, and motivation for the next step in development is sparked.
Participants return to their own projects with clear insights—and become part of a vibrant community that is rethinking product development.
