Meet. Learn. Discover. The Scientific Laboratory Show and Conference 2018

The Scientific Laboratory Show and Conference returns once again to the East Midlands Conference Centre at the University of Nottingham on Wednesday 23rd May. Organised by Scientific Laboratory Supplies (SLS) – the UK's largest independent supplier of chemicals, laboratory equipment and consumables – this free to attend event is set to build on past success, delivering an insight into the future of British science and technology. Science professionals at all levels – from laboratory technicians to senior lab managers – will enjoy networking with their peers, listening to engaging speakers and seeing the latest laboratory innovations at first hand on the exhibitors’ stands.

A learning environment

This year’s keynote speakers, Dallas Campbell of the BBC’s Bang Goes the Theory fame, Doug Allan – BAFTA award winning wildlife cameraman who has worked on Blue Planet amongst many other BBC nature programmes and Professor Sir Bill Wakeham Fellow of the Royal academy of Engineering and author of the Review of STEM Degree Provision and Graduate Employability, are sure to draw a big audience.

For those seeking career progression, the Science Council’s Professional Development Zone offers the ideal opportunity to engage with bodies such as the Royal Society of Chemistry, the Royal Society of Biology, the Biochemical Society, the Institute of Physics, the Institute of Science and Technology, and the Institute of Biomedical Science. These professional organisations will be ready to help visitors with anything from continuous professional development to updating a CV.

Up close and personal

The exhibition caters for visitors with diverse scientific interests from both academia and industry, providing the perfect environment to try out products. Over 60 exhibitors will be in attendance – with a number choosing to launch new products at the event – providing ample opportunities to discuss the products and their benefits, request site visits and view demonstrations.

The fun side of science

A series of light-hearted activities will be taking place alongside the exhibition and conference, keeping everyone entertained while they learn about the latest scientific products and technologies. All attendees will be entered in to a prize draw to win £250 in Amazon vouchers, and a mini golf competition taking place across the exhibition hall will give visitors a chance to win additional vouchers worth a further £250.
