The study was conducted by Real Consulting , researchers in resource economics . Dominic Mitchell , who presented the results to the delegates at the BRICS Foundry Forum , warned that industries tend to buy into rumours about the incentives and support offered by other countries . “ We need to explode these myths by taking a closer look at this issue ,” he said .
An industry think tank session was held to discuss how the global metal casting market is changing and how BRICS countries can play a role in shaping global foundry markets . “ We share a number of issues across developing countries such as energy and conversion .
These were discussed at length and the level of engagement amongst delegates was incredible ,” said El-Mohamadi .
The quality of technical speakers at the conference was outstanding . Delegates rated the topics , the presenters and the programme very highly . The event was well organised and co-ordinated – congratulations to all involved .
