XCELERATE 2024: Elevating the INVEX Experience

Xcelerate 2024, held in Montreal at Le Centre Sheraton and the Invera offices from May 14-16th, left attendees inspired to elevate their metal service center businesses. Designed to foster learning and connecting, the conference featured 2 days of simultaneous learning sessions with industry leaders from the Invera team sharing the latest INVEX software updates. On Day 3, the event wrapped up with an office tour and one-on-one metal company-specific demonstrations.

A Glimpse Into Xcelerate’s Rich Agenda & User Tracks

Over 2.5 days, the event offered a diverse range of learning sessions. Attendees explored the latest INVEX software updates, explored metal industry trends, and engaged in meaningful networking. The agenda included large format sessions as well as smaller breakout sessions, open expo times with Invera certified partner booths, and Invera partner’s panel discussion, offering insights into personalized metal software options and services.

Company updates & Software Roadmaps, Technology, Material Resource Planning (MRP), Reporting, Customization and Personalization, Financials, and Learning Resources, were just a few of the dynamic topics presented at the conference. This year, Invera provided attendees with user tracks, a recommended list of “not-to-miss” sessions based on their current Invera software platform, eSTELPLAN, STRATIX, or in various stages of implementing the recently launched INVEX metal enterprise software.

Networking Opportunities Galore

A standout feature of Xcelerate 2024 was the exceptional networking opportunities for our customers. In addition, our customers connected with Invera-certified software partners, that provide integrations and services that complement the INVEX software ecosystem. The open expo times and dynamic panel discussions facilitated deep dives into software personalization and new product offerings, enhancing the event’s value and building a robust, collaborative community within the metal industry.

Showcasing INVEX’s Latest Features

A highlight was the in-depth presentation of INVEX’s newest features. The Invera team showcased the advancements in the soon-to-be-released INVEX 2.1, which represents a full year’s worth of work on software enhancements as well as new applications. Real-time Q&A sessions ensured attendees could grasp the significance of these updates.
