Last year's inaugural MTI show was the largest manufacturing exhibition and conference ever staged in Ireland, completely filling the NSC, next to Dublin Airport.
For this year's event, the organisers have expanded the exhibition area with the addition of a purpose-built temporary building flown in from the Netherlands for the event.
This will be fully integrated with the existing hall to make a single, complete venue able to accommodate the 300 plus exhibitors expected.
The extra space has enabled ETES to create focus areas, designed to be of special interest to Ireland's thriving pharma-bio, medical and food and drink industries, which together accounted for over 35% of last year's visitors to the show.
The new Processing, packaging and logistics (PPL) pavilion will showcase materials handling systems, stainless steel products, control technology, packaging and labelling solutions.
The ability to tailor events to the specific needs of local industry is one of the most powerful aspects of ETEs' regional industrial exhibitions.
This geographic focus on specific business areas will be seen again at the next and biggest event in the ETES calendar, the Southern Manufacturing and Electronics Show (February 6th-7th 2008, Farnborough International Airport).
A new event running alongside the Southern Manufacturing show - Auto Aero 08 - will focus exclusively on the needs of specialist aerospace and automotive engineering enterprises, many of which are located in the South and along the M4 corridor.
