Monitor ERP user seminar day and 10th anniversary dinner

In commemoration of Monitor ERP's 10th anniversary in Southeast Asia, the Team Southeast Asia hosted the inaugural Monitor User Seminar Day & 10th Anniversary Dinner, marking a monumental milestone in the history of Monitor SEA.

User seminar – an enlightening day of insight and networking

On November 8th, we have the privilege of celebrating this significant occasion with distinguished guests. Our esteemed attendees, which numbered around 300, included valued customers, partners, and colleagues from across the globe including Sweden, China, and Singapore. The venue was none other than the Grand Ballroom of G Hotel Gurney, Penang.

The event was divided into two distinct sessions: the Monitor User Seminar Day in the afternoon and the 10th Anniversary Dinner in the evening. The afternoon session provided a platform for our attendees to interact closely with not only our dedicated support team, but also development, consultants, and sales. The foyer also featured the Machine Integration (Mi) and other engaging elements such as interactive flip boards, a themed photo booth under ‘Sustainability by Monitor’, and an enchanting Swedish-inspired entrance arch.

The User Seminar Day was a treasure trove of knowledge, with presentations by our key leaders. The sessions included ‘Sustainability by Monitor’ presented by Daniel Häggmark, ‘Web Client & Business Intelligence (BI)’ by Stefan Olsson, and ‘E-invoicing’ by Yeong Yin and Tyreal Tai. During the breaks, attendees enjoyed Fika and indulged in coffee, tea, and Swedish delicacies.

 

Earlier today, you had the opportunity to witness the launch of Monitor ERP’s innovative new functionality, “Sustainability by Monitor”. This groundbreaking feature allows manufacturers to perform sustainability calculations and measure the climate impact of their manufacturing activities down to the component level. This not only ensures readiness and competitiveness, especially for those exporting to Europe, but it also aligns with the growing demand for ESG reporting and contributes to more sustainable and responsible production.
