WCA January 2014

Three months and counting for wire D ü sseldorf 2014

A new year, a fresh start and one eye on the future.

Whilst 2014 is already here, the fresh start comes in the form of this issue of Wire & Cable ASIA which has undergone a make-over during the Christmas period, including a bright and bold new logo. You can also catch up with the latest news on our redesigned website at www.read-wca.com The future comes very much in the form of wire D ü sseldorf. Just three months from now the most anticipated exhibition in the wire and cable calendar will throw open its doors in Germany. More than 1,000 companies will be exhibiting at the Fairgrounds, and organisers Messe D ü sseldorf are expecting a record number of visitors for the week-long exhibition. Whilst we will have a more thorough look at exhibiting companies in the March issue, we have compiled a list of companies and their stand numbers for this edition, which starts on page 50.

Please also check out our sister publication, EuroWire , for even more details about the show. These can be found at www.read-eurowire.com
