Who attends the Photon08 Conference?
The Photon08 conference programme is set to attract more than 400 delegates, including a considerable number of prestigious invited speakers and international attendees, from universities, research organisations and industry.
Marketing Opportunity
Whilst working on their various R&D projects these delegates and their host institutions are the direct consumers of an enormous range of products and services. The conference brings together not only the decision makers but also the people who use the equipment, influence the decisions and are set to become the next generation of decision makers.
The Photon08 Conference and Exhibition provides the right environment and the perfect opportunity for manufacturers and suppliers to renew old acquaintances and establish new personal contacts with key players within this important sector.
The Technical Exhibition
The Photon08 technical exhibition is an integral and valuable part of the conference programme. For the delegates and speakers it is an attraction in its own right, providing them with a collective shop window for the latest developments in instruments, products, equipment and consumables that they require in the course of their research.
The exhibition will be a valuable "hands-on" source of new and different products, information and suppliers. The Photon08 Conference & Exhibition provides exhibitors with an unparalleled opportunity to meet these delegates face to face and to promote themselves and their products to the people within this market sector who have a direct responsibility for the specification of such equipment in their research applications.
