Advanced Engineering offers a great opportunity to meet suppliers , partners and generate business leads for the first time in over a year . Already , the show ’ s exhibitor space is 90 per cent sold out – a sign that our industry is eager to come together again . In 2019 , over 10,000 professionals from the manufacturing sector attended Advanced Engineering . 70 per cent of visitors reported that they planned to place orders as a result of the relationships formed and an impressive 93 per cent of exhibitors reported that they achieved their objectives at the show .
This year , Advanced Engineering UK is also relaunching AE Connect , a digital platform that is used to schedule meetings ahead of the show . In 2019 , the platform was used to schedule 588 meetings , which generated an average order value of £ 200,000 per meeting held . After 18 months of limited in-person meetings , it ’ s understandable that businesses might not have as many connections as they usually would by this time of year . AE Connect allows both exhibitors and visitors to make the most of their time at the show by filling their diaries with valuable meetings beforehand .
