The LIVE05 roadshow by electronic security distributor Norbain SD will cover eight locations, including Dublin and Belfast, in September and October 2005.
The six mainland events will take place in Scotland, Wales, and the four regional centres of England. The format will retain all the elements of 2004, the organisers say, including exhibitors, a seminar stream, and an informal.
What they say
Huw Edwards, Marketing Communications Manager at Norbain said: "The feedback from attendees at LIVE04 was so positive that LIVE05 will be extended to cover more key locations. The decision to go to Ireland is an obvious extension to our previous mainland schedule – we have a large and loyal customer base there, resulting from the very high level of delivery and service we achieve in all shipments across the Irish Sea. Our Irish customers are keen not to miss out again on the events that have proved so popular on the mainland. Further, we are making sure all our locations meet the access needs of our customers. The Scotland event will take place between Edinburgh and Glasgow to best serve both centres. The North East will have its own event. And we will be going back to Cardiff to the centre of our thriving Welsh customer base. With LIVE05 we will continue the trend we have seen over the last two years – the careful development of the event series to deliver growth in the size and number of events without losing the informality that is the essence of the shows."
