Hosted at the iconic Grande Centre Point Terminal 21, Champions of Manufacturing Thailand is more than a customer conference. It is a declaration that manufacturing has entered a new era, by moving beyond a system of record to a system of action and reducing friction in how work moves and decisions are applied.
Centered on the theme, “The Future of Manufacturing Starts Here,” the event delivers a high-energy experience designed to help manufacturers break free from the limitations of legacy systems and embrace a faster, smarter, more adaptive model for growth powered by the #1 Platform for Manufacturers.
With global manufacturing standing at an inflection point, Champions of Manufacturing Thailand will spotlight three pillars shaping the future of industrial performance:
- Adaptive ERP: The intelligent manufacturing backbone built for implementation speed, scale and measurable impact.
- Redzone Connected Workforce: Proven to unlock productivity, workforce engagement, and quality gains directly on the factory floor.
- ChampionAI: The Agentic AI engine that amplifies human decision-making and accelerates operational action across the plant.
Manufacturers across every industry are under pressure. Supply chains remain volatile. Labor shortages persist. Customer expectations continue to rise. Compliance demands are intensifying. Yet too many organizations are still operating on ERP systems built for a different era that cannot keep pace with the realities of today’s factory floor.
Champions of Manufacturing Thailand was built for this moment.
Throughout the event, attendees will experience firsthand how manufacturers can accelerate deployments, empower frontline teams with connected workforce technologies, harness AI agents to automate repetitive work, and unlock real-time decision-making across operations, supply chain, finance and service.
The event also features visionary insights from executive leaders, including CEO Sanjay Brahmawar, General Manager ERP – EMEA & APAC Sania Khan, Senior ERP Technology Product Director Chaitanya Josyula and General Manager Redzone – EMEA Ahmad Salama, alongside immersive live demonstrations showcasing the next generation of manufacturing technology in action.
“Manufacturing in Asia-Pacific is moving faster than ever, and the companies willing to embrace change now are the ones that will define the next decade,” said Leigh Fletcher, Vice President Asia Pacific. “Champions of Manufacturing Thailand is about empowering manufacturers to improve execution immediately, prove value in real operations while driving measurable gains in performance and consistency across the entire business. The energy, ambition, and innovation happening across this region is extraordinary, and we’re excited to bring together manufacturers who are ready to lead from the front, move at Champion Pace, and redefine what operational excellence looks like in the age of AI.”
From the shop floor to the C-suite, the event highlights a new operating model for manufacturing where intelligent systems work alongside people, execution moves in real time, and manufacturers gain the speed and agility needed to thrive in an increasingly unpredictable world.
Ultimately, Champions of Manufacturing Thailand is a rallying point for manufacturers ready to lead the next industrial era, not chase it.
