Advanced booking
Advanced Engineering has almost sold out of its entire floor space ahead of its 15th edition this October. The exhibition enjoyed its best-attended event last autumn, and saw 80 per cent of its floorspace rebooked by returning exhibitors within weeks of the show ending.
Now, as attention turns to this year’s show, the engineering sector is preparing to experience state-of-the-art technologies in person. Advanced Engineering is known for going above and beyond a classic trade show model, bringing engineering to life with prototype models of new rockets, F1 cars, drones and e-planes in a bid to inspire the sector for the season ahead.
“There is a great buzz at the show,” says Stephen Phipson CBE, chief executive of industry body Make UK. “It’s very active, and we’ve had a lot of interest from people. Shows like this are absolutely vital because it is an opportunity to network and to learn from each other. It is an opportunity to think of something or see something you never thought would happen. It is the sense of community and collaboration that is very important for our industry.”
In total, almost 9000 visitors flocked to last year’s edition, and organisers are anticipating even more interest this year as the engineering sector pushes the boundaries of design and innovation. The race to innovate is not at the expense of environmental responsibility however, and Advanced Engineered has increased its focus on sustainable practices in line with increasing awareness of the impact of engineering on the planet.
This year, visitors will have the option of following the show’s Innovation and Sustainability Trails, making greener developments more accessible than ever. Exhibitors demonstrating a commitment to achieving net zero will be conveniently marked on both the show map and app, allowing visitors to easily identify those exhibitors whose core values are aligned with their own.
