SUMMARY:EMN EVENT: EMCON Show September 9th 2021
DESCRIPTION:For 12 years EMCON (formerly Durham Oktoberfest) has brought together thousands of visitors and exhibitors to share with the best of the region’s engineering and manufacturing community. We have heard from some of the region’s biggest industrial names and influencers whilst debating a wide range of topics that concern the sector. \nLongevity of that kind is never taken for granted and every year the team look for ways of improving the quality of the show whilst maintaining its core values. This year however is unprecedented\, with a situation that no one could have predicted affecting our global business community and individuals of all ages. \nEngineering Manufacturing Network who ‘own’ EMCON have deliberated for a number of weeks as to the best approach to progress the show for 2020. This has included conversations with the exhibitors and sponsors who had already booked for this year as to how best to progress with our plans. We recognise that even if things are back to ‘some kind of normal’ by October there will most likely still be concerns over large gatherings alongside our need to have sufficient time to deliver the quality of show you are used to. \nConsidering all of this we have made the decision to move the show into 2021 and are very pleased to announce a new date of 9th September 2021 \nWe know that you will look forward to joining us for what will be our 13th show as either an exhibitor or visitor\, sharing the capabilities of our incredible region and supporting the continued growth and of course recovery of our sector.

SUMMARY:HEADLINE SPONSOR NEWS: Meet the buyer is coming to EMCON.
DESCRIPTION:https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/stadler-rail-meet-the-buyer-tickets-156862294345 \nMeet the Buyer is not only a chance to quiz the key procurement team that source and select suppliers\, but there will also be a mass of additional support and information on offer at EMCON regarding the NEXUS contract and how the north east’s regional supply chain can support and engage with their projects. \nStadler will for the third time\, be the headline sponsor at EMCON Show. They are the chosen supplier of the new Tyne and Wear Metro trains.  Stadler has pledged to support the regional economy and will include as many north east or UK-based companies in the new trains project as possible. It is committed to using local suppliers for materials and services for the depot re-build\, the manufacturing of the new trains and the 35-year service and maintenance contract. \nMeet the Buyer is an excellent chance to interact and develop connections.  It’s in the interests of all sizes of organisations to attend\, as many of the projects tend to be sub-contracted out\, and by talking to other industry suppliers you are widening your trade network and increasing the potential of forming new relationships. \nDon’t miss this fantastic opportunity to connect with Stadler.
