Ocean Business 2011 - The hands-on ocean technology exhibition and training forum

Hosting a demo

(only open to exhibiting companies)

Captivate your audience

The National Oceanography Centre boasts excellent facilities that benefit Ocean Business exhibitors when they sign up for a training and demonstration session at the show.

You might like to host a session on one of the many vessels (or bring your own!) and welcome clients old and new aboard. Your captivated audience will sail out to sea with you whilst you network and demonstrate your equipment that essentially could turn into major sales!

Alternatively, make a splash in the dockside waters where visitors can stand in a purpose built structure on the dock wall and watch your equipment at work in the sea. Or host a session in the onsite test tank or in one of the many classrooms available to exhibitors. With so many options, the only problem is choosing which facility to best demonstrate your equipment!!

Don’t take our word for it

Exhibitors from past shows know how important the training and demonstration side of the show is to them. 

  • Training sessions and demos are also an excellent way to interact with visitors and clients.
    Dany Inthaxoum, Business Engineer Science Department, CLS, France
  • The training and demonstration programme is a very good aspect of this show. The waterside is easily accessible to vessels and exhibitors.
    Sarah Slater, Innovatum, UK
  • Great combination of venue, demos and stands which give a visual result.
