I’m a big fan of the National Fluid Power Association’s series of regional meetings. The association has done a nice job in recent years holding these free luncheons in cities with a strong regional fluid power population—including Detroit, Chicago, Minneapolis and Milwaukee. Now, for the first time in quite a few years, the NFPA is having a regional meeting in my hometown of Cleveland.
The meeting, scheduled for the city’s venerable downtown City Club, will be held on Wednesday, November 16th, and much of the Fluid Power World staff will be in attendance. I’ve personally attended regional meetings here, in Detroit and in Milwaukee, and they’re always a great networking opportunity. Attendees include manufacturers, distributors and fluid power users. The NFPA often has a guest speaker, such as a local economist talking monetary policy; I always come away having learned something.
鉴于流体动力社区的亲密关系，我鼓励您参加这些区域会议之一。我在这个行业遇到的大多数人都为多家流体电力公司工作。他们一直保持着流畅的力量，正是他们几年来建立的联系经常给他们带来下一个职业机会。
So what if the NFPA doesn’t have anything scheduled in your area? I’d suggest dropping them a line and saying you’re interested. The proverbial squeaky wheel gets the grease, and if enough locals query the association, I bet they’d be happy to bring the regional meeting concept to your city.
