The best events for manufacturers in the UK

EEF National Manufacturing Conference 2019

Join us on 19 February 2019 for EEF’s National Manufacturing Conference and Dinner at the QEII Centre, London and the London Hilton on Park Lane.

The year’s most unmissable event brings together over 800 senior industry representatives and thought leaders along with key policymakers and media for a day of analysis and inspiration. Just one month from the UK’s departure from the EU it’s an opportunity to ensure you’re clued up and business ready, whether it is for new customs arrangements or for supply chain mapping processes.

But it’s not all about Brexit. At a time of unprecedented technology-driven change, we will delve into key issues such as trade, the next generation, effective leadership, the digital future and barriers to competitiveness.

Entitled ‘Facing the Future Together’, the Conference will provide the opportunity to hear from industry peers already delivering solutions and gain insights into how you can emulate their success.

The day will be rounded off with networking and discussion at our exclusive black-tie gala dinner with after dinner speaker Ed Balls and a very special guest of honour to be announced shortly.
