Pre-conference New Products Evaluation Workshops
Pre-conference New Products Evaluation Workshops
29th January 2014
Moving and handling assessments often identify types of products to promote safe work activities. Further trial may be necessary to determine the ‘best’ product and, in some cases, where bespoke equipment is necessary. It is important for practitioners to know which (and where) products are available and at the best possible price.
These workshops are designed to expose delegates to new products and the opportunity to contribute to the latest thinking in product development and bespoke services. Many suppliers take the opportunity to launch products at the event.
Delegates should discuss with their procurement departments the attendance of their purchasing managers to view products and to arrange demonstrations and trials in their organisations.
The half day programme incorporates refreshment breaks during which delegates can view and discuss additional products displayed in the New Products Display Area adjacent to these workshops. Delegates attending the workshops are invited to vote on ‘Best New Product’ and entries will go into a prize draw to win a place at the 2015 conference.
Please note – products included in the New Products Evaluation Workshops will not be included in the main conference workshops
