Registration for Subcon 2024 is officially open!

Celebrating 47 years on the 5-6 June 2024 at the NEC, Birmingham, Subcon will showcase over 200 subcontract and outsourced engineering services to a expected audience of over 4500 senior attendees. It remains the essential event for manufacturing buyers across all industry sectors, providing a unique platform to source suppliers, benchmark capabilities, and network with industry leaders.

After launching a newly refurbished website at the end of 2023 that offers an improved online experience for both exhibitors and visitors, Subcon has recently announced a few exciting enhancements that make for two jam-packed days of innovation and celebration.

What’s new in 2024?

Manufacturing Solutions Awards – Subcon will host the inaugural “Manufacturing Solutions Show Awards”, set to take place within the exhibition on Thursday, June 6th, and designed to celebrate excellence in UK manufacturing and honor outstanding engineering innovations.

Networking welcome drinks & entertainment – We’re extending an invitation to all visitors, exhibitors, and speakers to attend our welcome drinks reception, taking place from 5 pm on Wednesday the 5th of June. A perfect way to unwind and network after a busy day, in a friendly, informal setting.

Same venue, new hall! – Subcon will take place in Hall 3A, making it even easier to access the events taking place across the same dates, and even closer to the main transport hubs.

Dedicated work and meeting spaces – If you need a place for face-to-face meetings, want to take time out to catchup on messages, or just grab a coffee, there will be dedicated times available in the meeting spaces.
