Siveco’s GM to speak on “Industrial safety and maintenance in China – insights from 15 years on the ground” in Beijing, September 24

Siveco's GM, Bruno Lhopiteau is invited to speak on "Industrial safety and maintenance in China – insights from 15 years on the ground" at CCIFC (French Chamber of Commerce in China) SME Working Group, in Beijing on September 24.

In the wake of the Tianjin events, industrial safety is more than ever at the top of the agenda for the Chinese government, as well as for industrial operators. Previous high-profile accidents were all linked to technical mistakes in either design or operation, or both, compounded by management issues.

At the same time, the Chinese economy is transforming into what President Xi Jinping has coined the "New Normal", characterized by slower growth, leading industrial companies to shift their focus from expansion to optimizing existing assets and operations.

As a 15-year veteran of the Chinese maintenance market, Bruno Lhopiteau will share his hands-on experience, offering practical advice in the form of case studies. The presentation will be followed by Q&A and roundtable discussion.

8:30-10:00 am
September 24, 2015

Free, for CCIFC Members only
Conference in English.
