THE KwaZulu-Natal Industrial Technology Exhibition (KITE), being held at the Durban Exhibition Centre between 18 and 20 July 2023, provides the KZN market with access to a wide and comprehensive line-up of industrial technology products and services.
“As companies move to embrace the benefits of Industry 4.0 (I4.0), finding providers of the technology and services necessary to maximise their adoption of Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) trends, becomes a priority. Fortunately, we have made this process simpler and more efficient by bringing together the designers and providers of solutions focused on assisting organisations to implement changes that will, through automation, improve productivity, increase occupational health and safety, maximise profitability and operational uptime, and create sustainability of operations,” says portfolio director at Specialised Exhibitions — a division of Montgomery Group, Charlene Hefer.
