Reed Exhibitions Australia today announced that its flagship manufacturing event, National Manufacturing Week (NMW), will be co-located with MecklerMedia’s Inside 3D Printing Conference & Expo. Inside 3D Printing is the largest professional 3D printing and additive manufacturing event worldwide, giving industry a first-hand look at how 3D printing is revolutionising industries including manufacturing, medicine, architecture, aerospace, and more.
Reed Exhibitions’ National Manufacturing Week is Australia's largest annual showcase of manufacturing innovation, information and inspiration. Scheduled for May 11-13 2016 at the Sydney Showground, Sydney Olympic Park, NMW 2016 will build on outcomes of the previous events, where the large majority of visitors achieved key objectives such as being updated on industry trends, sourcing innovations and placing orders for new products and services.
Christoph Rowen, Managing Director Asia-Pacific for MecklerMedia commented that the co-location is based on a natural fit between NMW and Inside 3D Printing Conference & Expo. Rowen described NMW's Additive Manufacturing Zone - which showcases processes for building up components - as the logical 'home' for Inside 3D Printing exhibitors, while Inside 3D Printing conference delegates will see added value in the opportunity to visit NMW 2016's comprehensive exhibition.
John Gorton, Executive Director, Reed Exhibitions Australia added, "Reed Exhibitions is delighted to announce our strategic cooperation with MecklerMedia to co-locate NMW 2016 with the Inside 3D Printing Conference & Expo."
"Inside 3D Printing is a world-leading event for a game-changing area of technology. As it evolves, 3D printing technology is transforming almost every major industry: especially manufacturing, where it is already beginning to disrupt existing processes and open up exciting new opportunities for industry."
"By co-locating with the Inside 3D Printing Conference & Expo, NMW 2016 will give visitors a broader, deeper access to the technologies, strategies and opportunities associated with additive manufacturing. We are confident this expanded offering will maximise the value of participation in NMW 2016 for exhibitors, sponsors, conference delegates and trade visitors."
