The conference will be held at the Jumeirah Himalayas Hotel in Pudong, Shanghai, next to the venue for the Bauma China exhibition, which is also taking place as scheduled, on 24-27 November.

Given the pandemic and travel limitations, the event is expected to have a less international profile than in previous years, but an audience of more than 250 delegates is still anticipated.

The speaker line-up will have representatives from Hitachi China, Shanghai Pangyuan, IPAF, Kanamoto China, LGMG, Sinoboom, Tianyuan, E-rental and IPAF.

Topics covered will include financial management of rental companies, safety, earthmoving rentals in China, aerial platform technology trends, and the evolution of the Chinese access market.
