The SDW 2014 exhibition, running from June 16 to 18, has sold out, more than four months ahead of the show, say organisers Science Media Partners Ltd. Some 103 companies are on the exhibition floor. There’s free entry to visitors to the exhibition, which covers identity and secure credentials.
Entry to the exhibition is free to registered visitors and all visitors pre-registering before May 9 will be upgraded to Visitor Plus+ status and be entered into the SDW Conference Delegate draw with the chance of winning a free delegate pass to SDW 2014. In addition, they will receive a complimentary £5 catering voucher to use at the show.
Mark Lockie, Managing Director of Science Media Partners and Director of SDW 2014 said: “To say that we are proud that SDW 2014 has beaten all previous exhibition records is an understatement. The success of the show can be attributed to numerous factors – but selling out the exhibition floor 20 weeks ahead of the event demonstrates the trust that our exhibitor clients have in SDW consistently to deliver a knowledgeable and influential audience. New features this year, such as language interpreting in the conference, will lead to equal success in terms of attendee numbers, which are already significantly ahead of the curve.”
All conference sessions will have simultaneous translation into French and Spanish.
