News: Titanium conference a major success

By

Over 150 delegates from 17 countries attended the European Titanium Conference organised by NAMTEC (the National Metals Technology Centre)that was held recently at the Belfry Golf Club.

The event, which was held in partnership with the Special Metals Forum and the Titanium Information Group (TIG), was designed to cover the latest innovations and developments in this valuable material and provide an insight into the titanium industry and the opportunities for component manufacturers and suppliers to contribute to this large growth market.

Dr Alan Partridge, Chief Executive of NAMTEC opened the event, followed by a market overview of general markets for titanium, as well as the aerospace market, provided by David Hall from RTI International Metals Inc, Dr Laurent Pinto from Airbus and Dr David Rugg from Rolls Royce.

Chief executive of NAMTEC Alan Partridge said: "The event was a huge success and it was great to see such a breadth of international businesses which are all involved in the Titanium industry. The feedback we had was very positive with many delegates immediately recognising opportunities within the market and benefiting from the chance to network with senior figures from the industry."

Based in Rotherham, NAMTEC leads on delivering research and technology development, knowledge transfer, and training to companies in the engineering and manufacturing industries.
