SMART power drives Nepcon: Reed Exhibitions and SMART Group announce partnership to jointly manage Nepcon UK
Reed Exhibitions and SMART Group have signed a joint ownership agreement for Nepcon. This winning partnership is unique in the industry, combining Reed Exhibitions' event expertise and SMART Group's industry authority.
It reaffirms Nepcon's position as the national event for the UK electronics industry.
SMART Group Chairman Paul Salmon said “We are really excited to be jointly managing Nepcon. The SMART group believe that a single, strong, developing trade show that meets the needs of our changing industry is vital and that together we are the perfect people to deliver it.
The entire Board of Directors are delighted by the co-ownership of the show, which will enable us to reinvest in the industry through our expanded technology transfer programmes.”
Exhibition Director Liz Finlay commented “Joining forces with SMART Group will bring a wealth of industry knowledge and a better understanding of business challenges to the organising table. Nepcon has consistently delivered thousands of visitors. This development will guarantee that it will be a `must attend' event for many more.”
