Meteorological Technology World Expo 2014
Since its inception four years ago, Meteorological Technology World Expo has shown that one key event can act as a major industry driver, pushing technology forward. The show is a unique platform, offering key decision makers from diverse industries the chance to come together to showcase and discuss the latest weather-forecasting and climate-change measurement technology, which each industry depends on. Meteorological Technology World Expo is the must-attend event for any company or organisation looking for more accurate and next- generation weather forecasting and climate-change measurement technologies and services. This exhibition attracts over 150 exhibiting companies and 2,500 + attendees from over 70 countries.
Meteorological Technology World Expo is a truly international exhibition of the very latest climate, weather and hydrometeorological forecasting, measurement and analysis technologies and service providers for a global community of key decision makers within the aviation industry, shipping companies, marine/port installations, airports, military operations, off-shore exploration companies, wind farm operators, met offi ces, agriculture operations and research institutes.
Meteorological Technology World Expo 2014 also features one of the best, most insightful and exclusive speaker line-ups of the year! And the Conference is free-to-attend for anyone visiting the free-to-attend exhibition. Indeed, the Conference stage is located inside the exhibition hall, meaning you can pick and choose which sessions you need to watch, and then spend the rest of your time circling the exhibition searching for new technologies or services.
Meteorological Technology World Expo is organised by the publishers of Meteorological Technology International magazine, the world’s only publication dedicated to weather, climate and hydrometeorological prediction, measurement and forecasting instruments and services. In effect, the World Expo brings the pages of the magazine to life.
If you are looking for new measurement, forecasting and analysis technologies, weather or research service providers, or simply to meet up with your established suppliers in one convenient location, Meteorological Technology World Expo is the place to be.
Meteorological Technology World Expo will be taking place in Hall 3 at Brussels Expo.
