THURSDAY 29TH NOVEMBER IS A BIG DAY IN THE AMPS CALENDAR.
It’s when AMPS members come together for MEET THE BUYERS/SEMINARS and The AMPS AWARDS 2018, both taking place once again at the superb Manchester Midland.
MEET THE BUYER
1:00pm – 5:00pm
This is a unique opportunity for AMPS members to promote their company. Spaces are limited and will be allocated on a first come, first served basis. The afternoon provides the opportunity to network and arrange meetings with potential clients – including other members as well as an invited audience of specifiers, facilities managers and end power users.
Our Industry Seminars are free of charge to attend and cover a range of relevant topics, delivered by experts and with the chance to participate in Q&A sessions.
