Set to be Britain’s biggest specialist manufacturing event in , the GMF is a unique opportunity for smaller businesses to understand what’s coming next and how to sell into global markets. Its aim is to help SMEs to understand the supply chains for a broad range of high growth market sectors, how they might access them, and where to focus investments to gain future business.
Comprising a conference, two day exhibition and a manufacturing dinner with an anticipated 750 guests, the organisers expect the Festival to attract over 1,500 visitors this year.
Specific date in to be confirmed.
Over 1,500 SME companies plus global powerhouse names including Siemens, Tata Steel, Boeing and Rolls Royce. You might be an SME, but that does not mean you cannot sell and do business with these companies. The GMF is here to help you achieve that.
“It was my first chance to attend the GMF, and I was impressed with the quality of the delegates and exhibitors. There is no doubt that we will generate new business from enquiries raised on the day, and we too placed a significant order with a supplier who was also in attendance! All in all a great buzz about the place, and very professionally run and organised event.”
