		  <description>&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Site Visit Event at Krones AG, November 19, 2009&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Do you want to learn how Krones AG - a well-established engineer-to-order company that produces automated equipment and machines for use in the beverage industry - has increased their throughput by more than 20% without increase in headcount?&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Krones AG is able to seamlessly manage integrated project plans to run the complete value chain &amp;ndash; from quote to delivery &amp;ndash; with production planning. In addition, the concept of constrained based planning and optimization is applied to the whole value chain including engineering and service departments.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Krones AG is opening its doors to share how they have applied supply chain best practices to increase their throughput.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;With order backlog and book-to-bill ratios beginning to show signs of stability and growth, many semiconductor companies are rapidly shifting gears to deal with global economic recovery. Facing panic demand in the aftermath of aggressive supply side adjustments, this is much easier said than done for most companies. This complimentary breakfast session, part of i2&amp;rsquo;s Thought Leadership Series, will offer insights from leading supply chain practitioners across the semiconductor industry, along with observations and recommendations from recognized leaders in business education.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Join us for this panel discussion and hear directly from supply chain leaders at Cypress Semiconductor, Maxim Integrated Products, nVIDIA and Santa Clara University on potential approaches to deal with customer demand volatility, capacity allocations and other supply chain challenges prevalent in today&amp;rsquo;s environment.&amp;nbsp; Following this comprehensive discussion, i2 will provide an update on how growing semiconductor and high technology companies can improve consensus demand planning and synchronize global supply with changing customer demand rapidly.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Please join us for this free morning breakfast session and gain from current thinking of recognized supply chain leaders and practitioners.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Space is limited, so please&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://www.i2.com/registration/fabless/register.cfm" target="_blank"&gt;register&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;today.&lt;/p&gt;
