Supporting the UK Supply Chain, Annual Conference and AGM, 10th May 2017, Warwick
The Composites UK annual conference is a must-attend event for companies wanting to keep up-to-speed with strategic thinking, learn of forthcoming opportunities for business development and hear about new developments in technology, processes and materials.
There is a current focus on growing sectors such as automotive, and emerging sectors such as construction and energy, where the need for affordable composite solutions is paramount. Opportunities for glass fibre and carbon fibre based composites will be shared, helping companies plan for potential future demand - based on cost alone, glass fibre will have a significant role in these sectors.
Developing the workforce will be critical in enabling the UK industry to meet growing demand so with presentations from companies involved with the new apprenticeship scheme, delegates will learn why and how they can benefit from getting involved.
The 2017 conference will also engage the audience in developing a composites sector deal as part of the governments industrial strategy, thus helping to secure the future of the UK composites industry. How this links with the UK composites strategy launched at the 2016 conference will also be explained.
Confirmed speakers include:
* Airbus
* Atkins
* GKN Land Systems

* AIM Composites
* BEIS - Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy
* BSI - British Standards Institution
