Trade show organizers KCI Corporation and Messe Düsseldorf North America have announced a partnership on two new events that will be held next year in Houston.

They already team up on the Valve World Americas Expo & Conference, also held in Houston.  

The first new event is a new pump event called Pump Summit Americas, which will take place June 13-14, 2016, at the George R. Brown Convention Center.

The two-day conference and exhibition is powered by Pump Engineer, Pumpen Aktuell and Empowering Pumps.

“We are excited to introduce a new pump event to North America. Pump Summit Americas will be a conference and exhibition that caters to pump experts across industries,” Sarah Schroer, conference manager, Pump Summit Americas.

Pump Summit Americas aims to form a pump community across several industries, according to show organizers.
