DFA Media exhibitions enjoy large increase in exhibitors
DFA Media's co-located exhibitions - Fluid Power & Systems, Air-Tech, Drives & Controls, Plant & Asset Management, together with the newly launched European Offshore & Energy Exhibition (all to be staged at the NEC Hall 3/3A, Birmingham, from 8-10 April 2014) - are currently up on contracted exhibitors by 57 per cent compared with the 2012 shows, while contracted floor space is up 102 per cent.
The 2012 exhibitions attracted the highest visitor numbers up to that point, totalling 11,146 for the three days. This represented an increase of 29 per cent from the 8624 attendance figure of the 2010 shows, highlighting a significant return of confidence to the UK manufacturing sector.
Ian Atkinson, managing director of event organiser, DFA Media, comments: "We are delighted to report this impressive leap in the number of exhibitor signatories across the co-located shows, together with the major increase in contracted floor space. For 2014 we will build on the success of our 2012 shows by further improving the look and layout of each exhibition within our co-location of events, as well as making it as easy as possible for visitors to navigate their way around each separate event. We will also further enhance the format of our valued seminar programme for next year. The combination of leading manufacturing events, with a highly focused seminar programme, will give visitors a unique opportunity to keep abreast of the latest industry developments by visiting a single co-located event.
