Title:
Optimizing global value chains through process excellence – contribution of
academic partners to site development
Speaker: Prof. Dr. Hannes Utikal / Vice President
Prof. Dr. Thomas Bayer / Dean Chemical Engineering
Is the saying true, that in a global competitive environment sustainable competitive advantages are
realized in the regions? How can regional networks and clusters improve a company’s competitive
position? What are the key success factors for a good relationship that adds value for companies?
Hannes Utikal and Thomas Bayer will discuss with you how companies can improve their global
competitive position through regional collaborations. Results from a current study on the future of the
chemical industry “From Megatrends to Business Excellence” will be presented. Case studies on
industry-university collaboration highlighting the do’s and don’ts will be shared.
You will get an answer to the question: How can I improve my competitive position through smart
collaboration on site, in the region and through close collaboration with academic institutions.
This presentation is part of the „Site Excellence Forum“. The Forum addresses pressing issues to
executive and technical management of chemical, pharmaceutical and biotech companies as well as
interested parties (e.g. site operators, service providers, advisors, academia). Throughout the day, a
line-up of experts from the Infraserv Höchst Group (leading service provider to the chemical and
pharmaceutical industry in Germany) will cover a broad range of relevant topics, answer questions
from the forum and provide valuable insights and best-practice reports from Industriepark Höchst and
beyond.
