Europump chooses the UK for its 2024 gathering of pump industry executives E
uropump (the European Pump Association) is delighted to announce that after a 10-year absence, its Annual Meeting and General Assembly will be returning to the UK next year. This key event for the European pump sector was last staged in the British Isles back in 2014, when it was held in St Andrews, Scotland. Hosted by the British Pump Manufacturers Association (BPMA) and sponsored by WEG, this three-day event will take place at the spectacular De Vere Beaumont Estate near Windsor in the Royal County of Berkshire, from 22 to 24 May.
