  21. National Delegations Member Societies appoint appropriate people to represent their countries in the IIW Working Units. These individuals attend the meetings of IIW Working Units. The role of these representatives in the IIW is to: • Showcase their country’s technology, research output and expertise; • Promote their country’s capabilities; • Benchmark international best practices; • Establish communication, collaboration and co-operation between their country and other Member Countries; • Gather information about the latest technologies for transfer to their country’s industrial, academic, research and governmental establishments.
