IET joins forces with EMC exhibition
The Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) has joined forces with one of the industry's electromagnetic capability (EMC) trade exhibition and conferences.
The IET's partnership with the organiser of EMCUK 2009 will see the IET taking on the organisation and management of the technical conference element of the event. The exhibition will continue to be organised by Nutwood UK. EMCUK 2009 takes place on 13 and 14 October in Newbury. Last year's event saw the participation of over 60 exhibiting companies, which enabled delegates to keep up to date with new directives, components, test techniques, test equipment and EMC modelling software.
Commenting on the collaboration, Robin McGill, IET chief executive, said, "Attendance at the event is invaluable to all industries as the use of ever more sophisticated electronic technology becomes commonplace, and increases in every sphere of human activity. Without appropriate electromagnetic capability there will be consequences for people in general and financial risks for manufacturers and service providers who employ electronic technologies."
