Testimonials

We're in the middle of Digital Manufacturing Week - I've just been having a walk around, and the buzz is incredible. Everybody is talking about one thing - advanced digital technology - and that is just brilliant!

Juergen Maier, CEO, Siemens UK

The location gave us the foot traffic that we hoped for. In combination with the exposure we received in the magazine and the 'Automotive Visitor Trail' we had the right people come to us during the event.

The collaboration with The Manufacturer was absolutely amazing. I was absolutely satisfied with everything and look forward to the next year's event

Derk Steemers, EU Marketing Manager, ProGlove

We very much enjoyed the event! Nick Peters ( Editorial Director of The Manufacturer) was astounding and has added no end of value and helped educate the market. The man has my complete admiration, respect and appreciation. Liverpool was a brilliant venue, easy to get in and out and lots going on.
