Welcome Message

he American Council of the International Institute of Welding, consisting of the American Welding Society, the Edison Welding Institute and the Welding Research Council, is honored to have the opportunity to host the 65TH Annual Assembly of the IIW and the corresponding International Conference in the center of the city of Denver, Colorado, at the foot of the Rocky Mountains. We, and the “Mile-High City,” are pleased to invite all delegates, experts and especially accompanying persons to join us in Denver during the week of 8 to 13 July, 2012. We are sure you will find Denver a very family-friendly city with a special western and mountain ambience. In addition to the technical meetings, we have prepared for you a number of social events, social tours and technical tours. We sincerely hope you will participate in and benefit from both the technical experiences and the social experiences. In addition, Denver is an ideal location from which to launch a western vacation before or after the Annual Assembly week. On behalf of all of the members of the Organizing Committee and of all the volunteers who assisted us in this effort, we wish all delegates, experts and accompanying persons a highly enjoyable and successful experience in Denver and the surrounding western mountains.
