In order to facilitate the ongoing success of the programme, Rockwell Automation sponsored a three-day sub-Saharan African Channel Conference, from 6-8 July 2004, in Midrand. The conference included an introduction to all of the company's latest products and solutions, presentations by leading experts, and a visit to Starco Process Control, one of Rockwell Automation's platinum distributors. In addition, on-site training was provided for delegates to gain a better understanding of the company's products, and thus further assist clients in their areas. Delegates from all over Africa attended, fully sponsored by Rockwell Automation during their stay in South Africa.
