Alongside the exhibition will be a series of free seminars with expert speakers covering topical and technical issues. On Wednesday 9^th, the show will play host to the MDS (Motor-Driven Systems) travelling roadshow which has recently been informing audiences across the UK about the substantial energy and financial savings that are possible for users of motor-driven equipment.

DFA Media managing director Ian Atkinson says that the 2014 shows will build on the success of the 2012 event “by further improving the look and layout of each exhibition, as well as making it as easy as possible for possible for visitors to navigate their way around each event”. He adds the combination of leading manufacturing events and focused seminar programmes “will give visitors a unique opportunity to keep abreast of the latest industry developments by visiting a single co-located event.”

Drives & Controls 2014 will take place at the Birmingham NEC from 8–10 April. If you are interested in exhibiting at the show, please contact Doug Devlin on +44 (0) 1922 644766 or doug@drives.co.uk.
