We will be sponsoring the North America Roadshow (east coast) and we will attend the show in Toronto (October 5), in Milwaukee (October 9, at Rockwell) and in Cleveland (October 11, at Eaton). We would be happy meeting you there, discussing the future for IT and OT communication enabled with OPC UA. Please visit the website of the OPC Foundation for more information and registration.

Furthermore, the first minor release of our newest product, the High Performance OPC UA SDK V1.1.0, is in the pipeline.
