Intellect confirms support for National Electronics Week

Event highlights importance of sector to UK economy

 

Intellect, the UK trade association for the electronics, IT and telecoms industries has become the latest high-profile industry body to lend its support to National Electronics Week.  Intellect’s involvement extends the scope of the show even further. The event takes place between June 17th – 19th at Earls Court 2 in London.

 

Intellect believes that supporting events like NEW, which bring the whole industry together, is of vital importance in drawing attention to the value of the sector to the UK economy. 

 

Henry Parker, electronics programme manager at Intellect explains: “As an industry we must work together to draw attention to the positive and growing contribution we make to the economy. If we fail to do so, we risk losing the gains we have made in the past few years and instead face the prospect of our sector disappearing entirely from the UK. We believe that National Electronics Week will help to reinforce the reality that electronics is a still a vibrant, innovative and increasingly successful element of the UK economy as a whole.  

 

“Our presence at NEW reflects our focus on providing direct support for, and representation of, companies active in the electronics sector. We are pleased to support an event that, for the first time in many years, brings together the full breadth of the UK electronics sector under one roof.”

 

Intellect will run a seminar on the morning of the first day of the show that will explain how electronics companies can take advantage of the government’s R&D tax credits scheme.  In addition, on standG90 it will be explaining its role in promoting the dynamic capabilities of the UK electronics sector and giving electronics companies access to new markets.

 

NEW Event Director Claire Jeffreys adds: “We’re delighted to have Intellect on board. As the trade association for the UK’s technology industry, they are an extremely important addition to our line-up. Providing a total industry event is something we take extremely seriously here at NEW, which is why it is vital that we cater for electronics professionals in every market sector. From design and components through to production and distribution, we will deliver something for everyone at the Earls Court in June. Intellect’s support has strengthened this ability, proving to our visitors that we really will provide the NEW start the industry deserves!”
