VALVEcampus
VALVEcampus association supports the spreading of technical knowledge for Industrial Valves & Components Stakeholders.
It was established in 2014 to support IVS in cooperation with Confindustria Bergamo and Promoberg.
VALVEcampus is ready for the 5th edition of IVS!
IVS 2022 has renewed its partnership with VALVE Campus to promote the diffusion of technical knowledge among the stakeholders of industrial valves and components.
As part of IVS 2022, VALVE Campus will present new training formats and will share industry expertise thanks to its innovative platform.
