Why exhibit?

The FAST Exhibition is UK manufacturing industry’s only focused, specialist event covering all the options in fastening, bonding and assembly. Visitors are only there because they are personally active in product design, production or other aspects of manufacturing that involves putting things together. Here, unlike anywhere else, they will learn and achieve more in six hours face-to-face than they ever will with alternative searching and sourcing.  So if your business is fastening, bonding or product assembly in manufacturing you’ll be meeting design engineers, production professionals, senior manufacturing industry bosses and fastener buyers who have made a journey for one purpose: discovering new and better ways of doing things better in fastening, bonding and assembly. That is why you should exhibit. You won’t find a more concentrated pool of potential prospects like it anywhere else. Perhaps that is why 85% of FAST Live exhibitors don’t exhibit anywhere else.

The unique ‘Roadshow’ style of FAST Live involves small, inexpensive stands. Every exhibitor has the same sized stand with no exceptions. So all exhibitors have equal opportunities, with no chance at all of any upward cost spiralling. All stands are professionally erected shell schemes with fascias and name boards. For convenience, exhibitors can prepare their stands on the afternoon or the evening before the event, or on the morning of the show itself. This is a sensibly-priced, low-effort opportunity that is 100% focused on fastening, bonding and assembly in manufacturing. The only visitors there will be OEMs sufficiently motivated to come and talk solely about how they might put things together better. If you’re an expert in the field, then you should book a stand and show these visitors exactly what you can do.
