Queensland Manufacturing Technologies Expo

Australia, Brisbane - 19th to 21st October 2004
The organizers state: Research conducted in the Manufacturing industry has lead to the launch of the Queensland Manufacturing Technology Exhibition (QMan), which will be held in Brisbane in October 2004.

Queensland has a dynamic, broadly based economy that outperformed the rest of Australia over most of the 1990s. The manufacturing industry is a dominant contributor to the QLD economy, both directly and indirectly and the QLD manufacturing industry has grown more rapidly than the rest of Australia over the last ten years.

The Queensland Government is committed to maintaining a profitable, sustainable and technology-orientated manufacturing industry in Queensland. The Queensland Government 'Smart State - World Class Manufacturing' project targets key issues and opportunities for growth in some of Queensland's strongest and strategically important manufacturing sectors.

The inaugural QMan is based on the successful formula of ¡®shows within a show¡¯ that has been developed for National Manufacturing Week. However, rather than branding the individual ¡®shows¡¯, they will take the form of "pavilions" and include the following industry sectors:

Logistics and Materials Handling
Industrial Automation and Robotics
Instrumentation, Process and Control
Pneumatics & Hydraulics
Machine Tools and Metalworking
Computers in Manufacturing
Welding
Safety
Date(s)
19th to 21st October 2004
Time(s)
Tuesday 10am - 6pm Wednesday 10am - 9pm (late night) Thursday 10am - 4pm
Venue
Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre
Fact of the week
The dot-com bubble, a period of large and rapid investments in internet-based companies, peaked in 2000 and saw the Nasdaq Composite index rise by 579%. Then the bubble imploded. As the value of tech stocks plummeted, cash-strapped internet start-ups became worthless and collapsed.
