Towards the end of last year, Rhomberg hosted the 'Sibanye Conference' ('We are One'), following the acquisition of the majority of shares in the Cape Town-based electronics and instrumentation company by Winters of Canada. The conference ended with a day out at Cape Point. Here, in front of the boat aptly named Out of Control (not, as Rhomberg MD John MacDonald assures us, any reflection on his abilities as captain of the boat, but a reference to Winters buying Control Instruments' share in Rhomberg!).
From left to right: Kent Robbins (national sales manager, Winters Toronto); Chris Brown (national product manager, Rhomberg UK); Joe Aprile (Corporate Engineering Manager, Winters Toronto); Jeff Smith (Co-owner, Winters); John MacDonald (MD, Rhomberg); Camilla Diana (German exchange student currently at Rhomberg); David Hillborn (co-owner, Winters); Joe Garland (GM, Winters, Buffalo, US); Mike Sydenham (engineering manager, Rhomberg); Iain Grant (a fellow boat pilot); Sam Francella (marketing manager, Winters Toronto); John Gale (financial director, Rhomberg) and Eduardo Arra (GM, Rhomberg Electronica, Argentina)
