64 th IWCS conference in Atlanta, Georgia

▼ THERE will be two major di erences when IWCS throws open its doors this year. Firstly, the date. This is the rst time in its 64-year history that the conference and exhibition is being staged outside its traditional November date. This is in a bid to be more bene cial for attendees and allow for fewer con icts from the end-of-year work demands and holiday schedules. Secondly, it is being staged in Atlanta, away from its traditional rotating ‘homes’ of Providence, Rhode Island, and Charlotte, North Carolina. The conference and exhibition is being staged from 5 th to 8 th October at the Hyatt Regency Hotel, Atlanta, Georgia, USA. Suppliers Exhibition

is the rich content with professional development and training courses, right through to the Thursday afternoon technical sessions. Sandwiched in-between this will be the traditional table-top exhibition, with a number of companies taking advantage of the opportunity to showcase their new technology and developments. There is also a reception on Tuesday evening, presenting the ideal networking opportunity for visitors and exhibitors alike. This year’s conference will also be the rst under new chief executive Dave Kiddoo, who took over the reins in January this year.
