The UK’s largest dedicated exhibition for robotic and automated solutions and technologies, Robotics and Automation, is now open and will and run for two days, from 19-20 March, at the NEC Birmingham. For the second year running, this leading event is co-located with the UK’s premier intralogistics, warehousing and materials handling event, IntraLogisteX!
The show is also seeing the launch of the co-located Sustainable Supply Chain Exhibition. As environmental issues become more important to consumer and business brand owners across all sectors, there is growing demand for supply chains to adopt sustainable practices, become NetZero, and adopt effective ESG strategies. The Sustainable Supply Chain Exhibition will offer a focused environment for logistics, supply chain, and sustainability professionals to share ideas, offer solutions, and help each other on their sustainable journeys.
Robotics and Automation moved to Hall 6 of the NEC in 2023, to reflect the continued growth of the show, which now occupies both Halls 6 & 7!
The event first launched in 2017 at Milton Keynes Arena and has since seen a massive increase in attendees and exhibitors. This led to the decision to move the event to Hall 1 at the Coventry Building Society Arena, before it went on to occupy both Halls 1 and 2.
Now, according to Stephen Brooks, owner and managing director of the company behind the show, Akabo Media, the decision to co-locate Robotics and Automation and IntraLogisteX once again in 2024 gives both shows an immediate gain in terms of the number of pre-qualified professionals attending – with more than 8,000 end-user visitors expected – as well as facilitating inter-exhibitor interactions between the more than 350 exhibiting companies.
Across the two days, there is unmissable and exclusive thought leadership content for visitors to avail of, thanks to a packed conference programme, which stretches across three theatres and comprised of more than 60 industry leaders delivering insightful presentations across key topics on all things robotics, automation, warehousing, logistics and more!
Another first for this year also comes in the form of the dedicated content zones curated by Robotics & Automation and Logistics Manager magazines – both of which are providing platforms for leading practitioners and academics to showcase and demonstrate the latest trends, learnings and developments impacting and shaping British industry.
With the floor plan packed with market-leading exhibitors, now is the time to register your interest in attending Day 2 of what promises to be the UK’s biggest and best industry event in 2024!
