Association of Italian Textile Machinery Manufacturers (ACIMIT) called meeting on November 8, 2005.
After it was set up in the presence of Luca Cordero di Montezemolo, President of Confindustria (Confederation of Italian Industry), last June, the new Board of ACIMIT (the Association of Italian Textile Machinery Manufacturers), called by the President Paolo Banfi, was held last November 8th, at the Milan headquarters, for the first operating meeting.
During the meeting, the Board examined and discussed several matters on the Agenda. A final report was prepared on the results of ITMA ASIA, recently held in Singapore, which involved 851 exhibitors, of which 153 were Italian (18% of the total). The number of visitors was also satisfactory and confirmed the importance of Asia in the world scenario.
There was also confirmation of the leading role of Italian textile machinery as supplier for this market, in terms of technological proposals, quality, reliability and, above all, services offered. The Asian market, in fact, sees Italian manufacturers as partners not just for the supply of textile machinery, but also for receiving indications and direction for the future development of production.
This, then, was one of the aspects dealt with by the ACIMIT Board. The meeting also involved discussions about commercial strategies, examining the future development of the worldwide Trade Fairs, ITMA and ITMA ASIA, and the arrival of the new Trade Fairs in countries where there is major development, but also overlapping of Trade Fairs for the first time (like in Turkey, China, India and Pakistan).
