Advanced Engineering, the UK’s largest annual gathering of OEMs and engineering supply chain professionals, is inviting exhibitors, visitors and associations to the 2018 conference programme.
The presentations will take place at the largest, free to attend Open Forum programme of its kind. They will highlight the latest developments in key industries – aerospace, automotive, composites, connected and, digital manufacturing, advanced materials and new for the show this year – civil nuclear new-build engineering.
Topics will cover the full range of advanced engineering capabilities, including:
- Design
- Processing
- Manufacturing
- Materials
- Supply Chain
- Sustainability
- Testing & Measurement
- Repair and inspection
If you are interested in speaking on any of the above themes to a select and expert audience, please email [email protected], providing your name, company, contact details, as well as a title and a short description of your presentation. The closing date for receipt of applications is Friday 25 May.
Alison Willis, Industrial Divisional Director at Easyfairs, organisers of the show, said: “The Open Forum programme is a unique opportunity to present your research and case studies to a very select audience. Please send us your ideas and our Open Conference organisers will be delighted to consider your application. The programme keeps our show at the cutting edge of advanced engineering innovations.”
The Advanced Engineering Show is celebrating its 10th birthday this year and will be bigger and better than ever, according to show organisers Easyfairs. This builds on the success of the 2017 exhibition, where attendance increased by 15% on the previous year. Visitors stayed on average just under three hours at the show, many looking for new products, suppliers and services.
As last year, the exhibition will be held in halls 2, 3 and 3A, though now there are two entrances to the Show, making navigation of the huge exhibition space easier.
The Show, and its exhibitors, are marketed heavily with over 80 key industry associations and media partners. It is publicised widely, with 2.6 million people reading about it in printed magazines, 3.4 million people learning about it through social media and 2.1 million people viewing the Advanced Engineering website per month.
Last year the show attracted some of the industry’s biggest names including Airbus; Boeing; Jaguar Land Rover; Hexcel; and Dassault Systèmes, who met and did business across the supply chain, with visitors from a range of engineering specialisms including: automation, design & test engineering, process control, machining and many more.
The show takes place on the 31st Oct & 1st Nov, at the NEC, Birmingham, UK. Find out more by visiting www.advancedengineeringuk.com or following on social media @advancedenguk #AEUK18.
