UTECH event deemed a success
Despite economic uncertainty, the 10th UTECH Europe event, held in Maastricht, the Netherlands, from March 31 to April 2, was rated a success by organisers, who claim attendance far exceeded the expectations of all exhibitors.
More than 140 exhibitors attended and many told organisers that visitor levels had been well above their predictions, and that the quality of visitors was high.
More than 2,836 industry professionals from 86 countries attended the show, including almost 400 registered delegates for the conference running parallel with the exhibition.
The conference featured more than 60 presentations over 12 sessions during the three-day event. While these sessions recorded lower overall numbers compared with previous editions, most sessions registered solid attendances.
The next UTECH Europe show will be held in 2012, but 2010 sees the second UTECH North America exhibition, which will run in parallel with the Polyurethanes 2010 conference.
