BearingNet News and Events Successful Meeting Planner Launch in Rio Following the update in our last edition, we’re pleased to report that our revamped Meeting Planner has been successfully introduced at the Rio User Meeting. The updated platform was well received and was used successfully by attendees. This marks an important milestone in our ongoing efforts to improve the meeting experience, incorporating valuable feedback from our members. API Development Underway Our Technical Team is also actively working on the development of our API (Application Programming Interface), which will open up new opportunities for members to integrate their own systems directly with our platforms. Alongside the core API development, we’re working on the supporting infrastructure, documentation and functionality needed to make integration as straightforward as possible. This is an important step towards improving connectivity, streamlining processes and making it easier for members to access and exchange information with our platforms.

JULY JULY AUGUST SEPTEMBER FluidPowerNet Visits Plant Parts Team Changes EPTDA Presence in Seville Fasten.it Presents at the BIAFD Charity Work Keeping you in the loop... In September, Jordynn, Henry and Gus visited FluidPowerNet member Plant Parts Ltd. in Suffolk, UK. It was great to learn more about one of our valued members, an independent family-owned business in the construction machinery sector! Managing Director, Nicola Beer, and Sales & Operations Executive, Ania Walton, attended the EPTDA Annual Business Convention in sunny Seville in Spain this September. It was a trip full of culture, connections and valuable insights into the industry. In October, Nicola Beer took the stage at the BIAFD (British & Irish Association of Fastener Distributors) Autumn Conference. Key topics included CBAM implementation and the growth of the Fasten.it community. We were proud to be an event sponsor! Since the Summer Edition was published in July, we have had a few changes within the BearingNet Marketing team. We bid a fond farewell to our Marketing and Events Manager, Matt Seaman, at the end of July after six years. However, in August we welcomed two new members to complete the team! Andra-Roxana Alexa (left) joined us as a Marketing Executive with experience in advertising and digital marketing, and Jordynn Williams (right) joined us as a Senior Marketing Executive with over eight years’ experience in marketing and design. 6
