The 16th ISTMA World Conference has been rescheduled to 6 - 10 November 2023. The venue and the programme of the event remain unchanged.
Bob Williamson, President of ISTMA World, left a note about this rescheduling:
Dear ISTMA World Members
As you will appreciate it is difficult to avoid timing clashes when planning an international event. In consequence of feedback regarding the planned date for the next ISTMA World conference we requested our South African host PtSA to consider a rescheduling of the 16th ISTMA World Conference to avoid a clash with EMO 2023.
We are now pleased to advise that the PtSA team has accommodated the request and rearranged timing and will be hosting the All Africa Expo/ISTMA 2023 World Conference in Cape Town South Africa 6 -10 November 2023.
P.S. The weather in Cape Town in early November is perfect
From 6 to 8 November, ISTMA World Conference will gather experts from the world's leading special machining and tooling companies, so they can share their experiences and views on sustainable development, technical advances in tooling and skills development.
On 9 November, the African Investment Indaba Conference will expose potential investors to African investment opportunities.
From 7 to 9 November, attendees will be be able to visit the All Africa Exhibition, a unique exhibition that covers the full spectrum of manufacturing and tooling in five highly focused areas: African country pavilions, African manufacturing companies, African tooling systems manufacturers, Machine tool suppliers and Importers of tooling, moulds and dies.
