SEIFSA Indaba
 
On 27 May, Proffs Wilma Viviers and Raymond Parsons attended the Southern Africa Metal and Engineering Indaba held at the Industrial Development Corporation (IDC) Conference Centre in Sandton, Johannesburg. 
 
The purpose of the indaba was to spark the revival of manufacturing in general, and the metal and engineering sector in particular, by providing business executives and captains of industry, policymakers, senior government officials and labour leaders with an opportunity to discuss matters of common interest in a robust but constructive manner. Engagements of this nature have the potential to stimulate the manufacturing sector, thereby boosting South Africa’s economic growth prospects.
 
Prof Viviers, together with Mr Martin Cameron, delivered a presentation at the indaba on the topic: 'Fishing in a bigger pond: Opportunities for the Metal and Engineering sector in Southern Africa? - A Decision Support Model Approach'.
