The AIKW is a registered association with the aim of informing its members about current developments in rolling technology and the associated plant technology.
Unfortunately, the announcement of the conference was delayed this year, as there were problems with the number of hotel overnight stays at the originally planned conference location Celje. Therefore, a new conference venue had to be found in the Celje area, which we found in Rogaška Slatina (35 km east of Celje).
The board of the AIKW works on a voluntary basis and does not receive any remuneration for its work and the organization of the conferences.As the meetings are organized by a small circle of members, it may take some time to respond to inquiries or process business transactions.
