Engineering Solutions Live is the new
name for the one-day roadshow that
is incorporating and building upon
the power of FAST Live, Engineering
Materials Live and PCB Live, and
adding MMM – Make Measurement
Matter – to give engineers a
broader and more valuable visiting
experience under one roof.
Created with the busy engineer in
mind. This unique one-day event
format has helped engineers for
more than 15 years. Avoiding the
hassles of the traditional trade show
by focusing on identifying solutions
and learning about new techniques
and technologies.
The inaugural event will be held
at the British Motor Museum in
Gaydon, right next to the new site
that Jaguar Land Rover has just
opened. Engineering Solutions Live
is in good company here because,
just as it is bringing together four
key engineering technology areas
under one roof, JLR’s giant new
product creation centre will have
engineering, design and production
purchase in the same building for the
fi rst time in the company’s history.
