At a time of economic instability, the session will explain how PLM can improve your business processes, eliminate waste and crucially, maintain innovation through this difficult period.  Attendees will learn why PLM is not a luxury that should be cut when a recession strikes, but a necessity to compete and succeed during a recession.  For more information visit the MarketKey Website or alternatively register here.
