It’s been great to be back at Advanced Engineering this year. My reason for attending was to take a look at any new developments in the industry.
Ray GonsalvesSenior Engineer, Ford Motor Co
It’s been really good and there are lots of interesting people and many technologies that we haven’t been aware of before. The space element was fantastic. Attending Advanced Engineering has made me aware of many areas our business reaches into that perhaps we could develop further.

John PearceCEO, Made In Britain
The show was good and exceeded my expectations in terms of footfall and leads generated!
David StreeterDirector, Green Lane Automotive Consulting
The event is very well attended with quality exhibitors and stands. It’s very well organized, I was invited by Mira institute and was invited by them to go to the VIP lounge. Advanced Engineering is very forward thinking. I felt I didn’t know what to expect this year and was really pleased with the outcome as a first-time visitor. I am thinking of exhibiting for the first time next year as seeing how busy the show is after a really hard year has been very reassuring.
Tim PriceCommercial Sales Manager, H Brigham & Co Ltd

It’s the first year I’ve been to Advanced Engineering so I didn’t know what to expect. It’s been very interesting to be able to see all the variety of exhibitors here today and to connect with people in the industry. It’s a great way to be exposed to new and innovative content.

It’s been so interesting. It’s lovely to get out again and see everyone after a strange couple of years! There were a few talks that displayed interest to me and it’s great to get a broader view of different industries as there is a lot of cross over here. I really enjoyed the event.
