The Advanced Materials Show was held in June at the NEC, Birmingham (UK) over 2 days. Co-located with The Advanced Ceramics Show, Battery Cells and Systems Show and The Vehicle Electrification Show, the trade show attracted around 3,500 delegates. The NIA was well represented at the show, with the NIA itself having a stand on which it was joined by members Blue Frog Scientific and Advanced Materials Development. Also attending the exhibition were NIA members Promethean Particles, CPI and StatPeel, with Cerion Nanomaterials being one of the main show sponsors.

NIA’s Interim Director General Sean Kelly also chaired a conference session on How to Harness Digital Technology to Reduce Costs and Expedite Innovation.

The show was an opportunity for the NIA to meet existing collaborators and also potential new members. This show marks the end of a busy period of travel for the NIA to help grow the outreach of the Association and its members. Companies interested in the opportunity to collaborate with the NIA in future events and trade shows, are welcome to contact us to discuss membership.
