The relevance of these R&D programmes is illustrated by positioning them in the context of key industry trends and drivers and South Africa’s ability to respond to these. Examples of CSIR R&D on light metals and advanced composite materials, including the successes achieved in mobilising complementary expertise at universities in support of these projects, are given. Finally, the progress made and the impact already achieved or expected in future, are describedenAdvanced materialsAerospaceAutomotive industriesConference PresentationDamm, O., Du Preez, W., Trollip, N., & John, M.
