Testimonials from the previous edition at MRE 2018 demonstrate the value of the event. For instance, Dr. Robert Quarshie, Head of Materials at KTN, remarked “The event attracted delegates from not only across the materials sector but a much wider range of sectors, as it provided a unique forum for increasing interactions between industry, researchers and policymakers from a range of disciplines and market sectors, across supply chains.” Ben Walsh, Lead Technologist in Advanced Materials at Innovate UK, elucidated on this: “The event demonstrated the depth and breadth of UK materials research and presented opportunities to companies to grow their businesses through the research and innovation support available.”

While at the event you’ll be able to hear from some of the country’s leading innovators and investors, where current trends will be showcased as well as taking a glimpse at future innovations. There is a great package of benefits available to exhibitors to maximise the networking opportunities available.  The event will feature, in addition to the exhibition, a series of seminars and workshops demonstrating the scope of current developments in advanced materials. It provides a unique opportunity to build links within the materials supply chain to strengthen the UK materials offer to Original Equipment Manufacturers and end users.

The event is a must for anyone working in materials, though it is also relevant to a much wider range of sectors, providing a forum for interaction between industry, researchers and policy makers from a range of disciplines and market sectors. You’ll be able to meet and speak with senior government representatives, investors, top industry players, scientists, start-up companies and SMEs, early career researchers and product designers. MRE 2020 is headline sponsored by the Henry Royce Institute and supported by EPSRC and Dstl.
