The African continent is currently facing economic challenges. Africa is more than ever in the focus of international investors because of its enormous oil and gas reserves, the many copper mines, the large aluminium reserves and the expanding regional steel industry. International manufacturers of machines and plants for the wire and cable industry and producers of tube manufacturing and tube processing machines are therefore sought-after industrial partners.
The aim is to bring local suppliers and international experts together to discuss future joint investments and projects. This is an opportunity to present yourself to an audience of high-ranking representatives of leading wire and cable or tube companies from all over Africa.
The international conference will take place at Emperors Palace, Johannesburg. Details can be found at
