About

A. Next Events & Conferences Ltd is the Company launching the Show, which has been created by Tony Robinson, a man referenced by peers as a legend in the exhibitions and conferences industry.

Tony has been a trailblazer in this business since 1996. Few people have gained his experience in launching specialists B2B Shows. The management Team comprises “The Fab 4” all of whom have previously worked for Tony before, including Rebecca Would, Head of New Shows Development; Ross Easterbrook our GM; our CFO is Paul Skelly and Andrew Boakes, Head of Conferences.

A. Desalination of water has never been more needed across vast areas of our planet. Construction of new facilities is essential as is substantially upgrading many existing plants. Both represent big growth and investment opportunities which are set to spiral in coming years. This is the must attend event for everybody engaged in Design, Development and Operation, Upgrading and Futureproofing. It is the place where current and next generation technologies will be discussed, presented and debated, all on show in a world class exhibition. 

A. The one guarantee is you meeting with 3,000 – 4,000 specifiers, looking to secure the latest technology for the design, build & operation of next-generation desalination projects, and for upgrading and retrofitting existing desalination plant and facilities. Our primary community is Europe but we will be marketing and inviting industry experts from around the world.  Expect between 250 and 300 exhibitors. Our global industry research is already gearing up to ensure your complete satisfaction and even amazement at the quality and quantity of visitors.

A. Yes! A three-stream conference will be taking place in purpose built super high-quality auditoriums and conference rooms directly adjoining the Expo Zone. Main Themes include Desalination Plant – design, build and operation; Power Supply – including the potential for SMR; Saline Waste – The worlds overlooked resource.

A. You will see a set-up that reflects the importance of ‘The Experience’ for our visitors. You will see Relaxation Lounges open to all visitors so they can plan their show, cover emails and work as needed and where you as an exhibitor can do additional off-booth meetings with potential clients. We see ourselves to be in the hospitality industry as well as in the serious business of running trade shows. Our visitors will thrive on the extra comforts and food quality that they will experience.

A. It’s an easy process that you will be familiar with from other events you attend. We just aim to make it simple and not time consuming at this stage.  We do like to be clear that we are booking the stand and prefer not to put stands on hold but rest assured if a hold is what you need, we will be as accommodating as possible. Space is already booking fast!

A. We love it when you book, we love it when you get excited. At a recent show in Germany, we received a huge amount of positive feedback, many with a resounding “OH Yes! We need this!”
