Manufacturing for the future

Welcome to the Manufacturing Indaba special newsletter.

The fifth Manufacturing Indaba, sub-Saharan Africa's premier event for the manufacturing sector, kicked off in Sandton City on 19 and 20 June last week. The annual event provides manufacturers with a roadmap and the connections to unlock their potential and contribute towards accelerated GDP growth and employment opportunities.

This year's Indaba promised to be bigger and better than ever before, with additional focus placed on Industry 4.0 and its importance for manufacturers.

In this newsletter, you will find all the event buildup as well as key conference coverage from Bizcommunity reporter Danette Breitenbach providing insight into the current state of manufacturing and how to prepare for the future.
