1 INVITATION JUNE BERLIN ALL ABOUT TRANSFORMERS

2 Please forward this invitation! TRANSFORM, the international conference for specialists from the transformer industry, has been running since You might already have been a guest at one of the more recent events and taken the opportunity to find out about innovations in power transformers in a number of interesting talks. Not to mention the interchange with the speakers and other participants, as well as the attractive supporting program. This year, we will be expanding our TRANSFORM activities further. We want to give young engineers at the start of their careers the chance to develop their knowledge of transformers. We have therefore launched the TRANSFORM campus. In a two-day workshop, TRANSFORM partners, together with independent experts, will share their extensive knowledge with young colleagues. JUNE BERLIN ALL ABOUT TRANSFORMERS Please forward this invitation, together with the informative literature, to colleagues in your company who should not miss this unique opportunity. Many thanks for your support. More information:
