Overview

With just over 5 months to go until Materials Research Exchange 2020, things are shaping up to ensure that MRE 2020 will be the must-attend materials event of the year. MRE 2020 is an exhibition, investor showcase and conference, which will demonstrate ground-breaking new materials developments and their manufacturing processes. Network with over 1500 delegates, meet key funding and decision makers and attend targeted seminars and keynote addresses. Taking place on 18th Р20th February 2020 at the Business Design Centre in London, the event is organised by KTN and Innovate UK and will showcase the wealth of UK materials research. MRE 2020 is headline sponsored by the Henry Royce Institute and supported by EPSRC and Dstl. Register today.

 

We are currently in the process of creating a packed programme which will appeal to the full spectrum of the materials landscape. While at the event you’ll be able to hear from some of the country’s leading innovators and investors, where current trends will be showcased as well as taking a glimpse at future innovations. The event is a must for anyone working in materials, though it is also relevant to a much wider range of sectors, providing a forum for interaction between industry, researchers and policy makers from a range of disciplines and market sectors.

 

Here’s a taste of what you can expect:

  • Network with the entire materials landscape, from academic researchers and product designers to manufacturers and companies from key industry sectors.
  • Extensive exhibition from academia and industry representatives.
