World Manufacturing Forum 2013
This year’s event will be held 22-23 October, 2013 in Washington, D.C. at the Ronald Reagan Center. The Forum aims to bring together high-level industrialists, policy makers, and key societal stakeholders across the globe for a cross-exchange of ideas on major macroeconomic trends and manufacturing innovation. The forum is sponsored by IMS and its member countries and open to international sponsorship from government, industry, and institutions.
(See “Announcement” under the WMF tab)
