Exhibitions and conferences seem to come thick
and fast this time of year.
On the Orient there is wire Southeast Asia in
September in Bangkok, Thailand, while there is a
Transatlantic shift a month later with wire South
America and IWCS, both of which feature in this
new issue.
Our coverage of IWCS, which this year is in
Atlanta, Georgia, USA, gets underway on page
54. Another notable change with this conference
and exhibition is that it is being staged in October
– the rst time in its 64-year history that it hasn’t
been held in November.
Events in São Paulo, Brazil, receive our attention
from page 56 onwards. Run along with Tubotech
and attracting some 15,000 visitors two years ago,
wire South America is expected to grow rapidly,
seemingly in tandem with the economic fortunes
of the country.
Details of wire Southeast Asia can be found in the
September issue of our sister publication,
Wire &
Cable ASIA
.
There is also news from wire Russia. Staged in
Moscow in June, and defying an unfavourable
economic climate in the country, the exhibition
drew more than 200 exhibitors and a good
sprinkling of visitors ensured another success at
the Expocentre. Full details can be found on page
25.
There is also good news for cable quality standards
worldwide with BASEC (British Approvals Service
for Cables) nowproviding lowandmediumvoltage
cable testing to all International Electrotechnical
Commission standards.
BASEC also recently received accreditation for its
testing facility at one
of the highest levels
of recoginised quality
for any testing or
calibration laboratory.
The full story is on
page 15.
