The global IDDRG community has, like all other communities, been affected by the COVID19 crisis. The annual IDDRG conference 2020 (IDDRG 2020) was planned to be held in Busan, South Korea, on 7-11 June 2020. However, due to the Corona situation and thanks to the enormous efforts by the Korean colleagues, the successful IDDRG 2020 was held virtually on 26-30 October 2020. The executive committee of IDDRG has therefore discussed the annual conference schedule for the coming years. This schedule has now been modified after discussions with and based on the suggestions from the organizers of the IDDRG conferences 2021-2023. After many considerations and conversations with the members of the IDDRG community in different countries, a new schedule was outlined. We would like to inform that- IDDRG 2021 will be held virtually on 21 June – 2 July 2021. Professor Mathias Liewald, Universität Stuttgart, will organize this conference. Please visit www.iddrg2021.uni-stuttgart.de for more information. We also refer to the coming separate communication from Professor Liewald and Universität Stuttgart, Germany.
- IDDRG 2022 will be held in-person in June 2022 in Lorient, France. Professor Pierre-Yves Manach, Université Bretagne Sud, will organize this conference.
We look forward to the support of the global IDDRG community for the coming virtual IDDRG 2021 organized by Stuttgart, Germany, and the in-person IDDRG 2022 in Lorient, France. The Executive Committee of the International Deep Drawing Research Group (IDDRG) January 8, 2021
The city of Győr is located halfway between the Hungarian and Austrian capitals (Budapest and Vienna), 120 km in both direction, and just 80 km from the Slovakian capital Bratislava. This is an old historic city founded around 100 B.C. by the Romans in the province called Pannonia (the Roman name for the western part of the present Hungary). Soon after its foundation, Győr became an important city for Roman merchants along the crossroads from West to East. Nowadays, Győr is one of the most dynamically developing cities in Western Hungary, as the industrial centre of Trans-Danubian countryside with several multi-national giants like Audi, Philips, Electrolux, etc.
Győr is the main headquarter of Audi Hungaria Co., where the conference is planned to be held. The Audi Hungaria is one of the leading multinational car manufacturers in Hungary opened here in 1994. The Audi Hungaria is the main producer of four-, six- and eight cylinders Audi engines used also in Volkswagen, Seat and Skoda automobiles. Győr is the only place where Audi TT sport cars are produced. A new press-shop for car body panels and an 18,000 m2 new tool manufacturing plant was built and opened here, in September 2005. This new tool plant is the main supplier of forming tool departments of all Audi plants in Europe including Germany, as well.
