Nufast Ltd Will Be Exhibiting at the Industry’s First Virtual Expo

In response to the global Covid-19 crisis, Made in Group were forced to cancel their annual manufacturing exhibition and will now hold the industry’s first virtual exhibition of its kind. Beginning on August 17th, this will be a 2 week long “Digital Business Festival”, featuring over 30 events and aiming to feature 5,000 delegates.

Backing Britain Live 2020 is being organised by the Made in Group which has two strong networks in the Midlands and Yorkshire, its aim to keep industry connected and help manufacturers collaborate, share best practice and promote British manufacturing. This will include: Webinars, Conferencing, Round Table Discussions, Networking, Virtual Expo Hall, Digital Mastermind Groups and a Physical Goodie Bag.

Jason Pitt, chief executive of the Made in Group, said: “Made in exhibitions are significant events that many members and visitors look forward to, but like many aspects of our way of life, we have had to make considerable adjustments. We are an innovative organisation when it comes to technology. We do more than many realise. As a business, we have developed a digital platform that allows members to create their own social media microsite, upload news, attend virtual webinars and soon to include virtual mastermind groups, question-and-answer sessions and panel discussions."

Nufast Ltd are market leaders in the manufacturing of fasteners, pressings, cold forged components, tooling and provides an on-site facility for Optical Sorting of free issue material. We have embraced new ways of working during this period of global disruption; this included upskilling members of staff to use modern technology to improve productivity in areas to minimise disruption and increase our long-term capabilities.

Nufast’s managing director, Craig Lawson said, "It's important to have a strong national supply chain so that we can deal with the crisis we have just seen, any event that aims to secure localisation of supply chains can only be a good thing." Craig added “We very much look forward to welcoming visitors to our virtual stand, learn more about their business and take this unique opportunity to introduce our optical sorting services and product portfolio”

Nufast Ltd are proud and excited to be exhibiting at such an iconic moment in modern industry history and be at the forefront of technological innovation. It is the time for the industry to not only stand up and be counted, but to ultimately embrace change and be enthusiastic in the face of new ways of working, such as virtual networking.

The exhibition already has more than 200 exhibitors confirmed with a footfall target of 5,000 delegates.
