ISA International Instrumentation Symposium - UK 2014?

Members,



I think InstMC should agree to act as the IET community to run a joint ISA/IET conference in the UK in 2014.



It would be useful if this could be linked-in with the NPL Measurement Network,the Sensors KTN,the IoP ISAT Group and maybe the Trident Exhibitions Sensors and Instrumentation event so as to gain a maximum focus and attendance.ISA has a membership in the UK and these people no doubt will be invited to participate.



ISA is industrially led and has a lot of experience in running successful events in the States.



Community members in UK------who would be willing to join me in an IET IntMC joint organising committee with the ISA? Please indicate to me  your interest as soon as possible. Barry Jones

I am no-longer a member of ISA but have been involved with the Aerospace Instrumentation Community for many years. I've never made it to this conference in the US having preferred the ASME Gas turbine conference for my interests at the time. Bringing it to the UK is a great idea because interested people like me who have been put off by the cost / time taken to visit the US will be able to attend.

There will definately be intersest from European industry.

The European Virtual Institute for Gas Turbine Instruemntation will be holding it's conference this year in Switzerland so there may be some linkage we can make between the two.

Very pleased to hear the enthusiasm for the delivery of this Symposium in the UK (London?) in mid-2014, and in the potential for the group's input into the joint organising committee, alongside other interested parties.



ISA very keen to hold in Europe with IET for first time, and draft event proposal now being discussed between the two institutions.



Thanks  - Alex

Alex,



Any progress with ISA Symposium UK 2014 ? Barry

Hi Barry



Yes, after some to-ing and fro-ing with the ISA, we're now ready to sign an MOU with the ISA to jointly deliver the IIS next year, in the UK for the first time - provisionally June 23-27 2014 in London.



While there are number of existing technical committee members from the ISS 2013 conference, who would like to be involved in the 2014 committee - we would obviously also be keen for further support / involvement from the IET IntMC - for the technical / organising commitee and the conference in general.



Kind regards



Alex
