GE Energy’s stand won them the Best Trade Exhibition
Stand Award at the 2010 Electricity Engineers’
Association’s (EEA) annual conference.
“This is the ninth Conference at which we have offered
this Award. Each year we never cease to be amazed at the
creativity of the exhibition stand layouts, themes and
activities to attract delegates and visitors to stand sites.
This year we had 99 trade stands representing over eighty
companies so the judging task is not getting any easier,’
said Peter Berry, EEA Executive Director.
Trade Exhibitors are an integral part of the EEA Conference
and Peter said that the number and quality of the trade
exhibition stands at this year’s event was very rewarding
particularly given the global economic climate. He also thanked
those trade exhibition companies that supported the paper
presentation programme at the conference.
“It is a great opportunity to highlight product and
service innovation which is vital to our industry future. There
are some excellent technical papers on the programme covering
technologies we should be using to improve our
performance.”
The 2010 EEA ‘Leadership and Innovation' annual
conference was held from 17-18 June in the Christchurch
Convention Centre.
As well as a wide diversity of papers the conference had an
extensive trade exhibition that showcased the technologies,
equipment and services that are vital for a modern electricity
supply system.
