Organisers of the UK’s largest lab-focused industry show, Lab Innovations, say they have already matched exhibitor attendance levels for the previous record-breaking year.
With nearly five months to go before the Birmingham NEC event, confirmed participants include 80% of 2023 exhibitors, with numbers expected to increase still further before the 30-31 October dates.
Leading brands confirmed to exhibit include Waters, Sartorius, Scientific Laboratory Supplies, Veolia Water Technologies, SciMed, Alpha Laboratories Limited, IKA, PerkinElmer, Integra Biosciences, Analytix and Bronkhorst UK.
Sustainability and the latest innovations form important themes of this year’s exhibition but also in the conference programme, hosted across four free-to-attend theatres.
Partners including GAMBICA, Laboratory News and the Royal Society of Chemistry, Lab Innovations will curate presentations across the two days, focused on sustainable solutions in science.
The Sustainable Lab, hosted by Andy Evans from Green Light Laboratories, is one of the biggest installations this year, showcasing sustainable products to visitors and exploring simple changes that can be made to improve the energy efficiency and reduce waste in labs.
A new feature will be a Quality Infrastructure Forum (QI forum) hosted in partnership with the UK’s National Quality Infrastructure members including the United Kingdom Accreditation Service, the?National Physical Laboratory and the British Standards Institution. It will offer insights into lab accreditation, quality, technical assessments, and the future of AI in labs.
Lab Innovations will once again take place alongside the Advanced Engineering shows.
