Greetings, and welcome to the latest digital edition of Pro-Systems Africa News. We have had a very eventful few months, with the editorial team having the pleasure of attending the 15^th iteration of Integrated Systems Europe, held in Amsterdam between 6 and 9 February. On the entertainment technology side of things, we have attended some amazing South African productions this quarter, including Ultra SA and the South African version of The Color Purple, scheduled to return to the Johannesburg Theatre in August due to popular demand. In an effort to highlight the enormous role that the industry has to play in skills development, we have present a feature looking at some of the industry-provided training programmes across South Africa.

While it feels as though we have just stepped off the plain and caught our breath, we are already preparing for our next adventure. The Pro-Systems editorial team will be setting off once again, this time attending Prolight+Sound in Frankfurt. If you or a member of your organisation will be attending Prolight+Sound 2018, please let us know at editor@pro-systems.ac.za.

Enjoy the read

Regards
David Cornwell and the AV Integration team
