Why We Changed the Name from VTScadaFest to ScadaFest
As our annual user conference continues to grow in scope and impact, we felt it was time for the name to evolve along with it. Starting in 2024, VTScadaFest officially became ScadaFest—a change that reflects both our expanding community and our forward-looking vision.
So, why the change?
- Simplicity and Impact
“ScadaFest” captures the essence of the event—an energetic celebration of SCADA technology—while making it more accessible to newcomers and industry professionals alike. - A Broader Identity
While VTScada remains at the heart of everything we do, the event has grown to include broader discussions around SCADA best practices, industry trends, and innovations that go beyond the software itself. The new name reflects this evolution and opens the door to even more diverse participation. - Community First
ScadaFest is about people—developers, integrators, operators, and decision-makers—coming together to learn, share, and connect. The name change emphasizes the inclusive, community-driven nature of the event, while still honoring the legacy of VTScada. - Future-Focused
As we accelerate into new territories of automation, data intelligence, and infrastructure resilience, ScadaFest positions us for a future where the event continues to lead conversations and inspire innovation across industries.
What hasn’t changed?
Our commitment to delivering a world-class experience remains stronger than ever. ScadaFest still features:
- Hands-on training and workshops
- Direct access to VTScada developers and support teams
- Expert-led sessions on real-world applications
- Unforgettable entertainment and networking opportunities
Whether you’ve been with us since the early days or are just discovering the power of VTScada, ScadaFest is your place to connect, learn, and grow.
