NICEIC has announced details of its first ever conference and exhibition.
NICEIC Live will be a hub of business advice and technical information for electrical contractors, as well as offering attendees discounted rates on the latest products and services.
"This is an innovative and exciting event for the electrical contracting industry," says Mark Smith, marketing manager at NICEIC.
"It will be very much a learning experience with talks on industry related issues. We have put together the most comprehensive selection of seminars and speakers ever seen at an electrical industry event aimed specifically at contractors."
The day's programme of seminars will be delivered by a combination of respected electrical industry figures and high profile business people. Speakers include NICEIC's own Tony Cable, as well as former minister for trade and deputy chairman of Dyson, Sir Richard Needham.
Political figures and MPs will also be invited to speak about industry issues and legislation.
Topics discussed will include the significant opportunities in the microgeneration industry, counterfeit goods and RCDs, home automation and environmental systems management, as well as advice on marketing a business and recovering from the recession.
The live event builds on the success of NICEIC's regional TechTalks which have attracted more than 5,000 attendees in the last two years.
"The response from both contractors and sponsors to our Tech Talks has been fantastic so it is a natural step to develop an exhibition and conference on a much larger scale," added Mark. "I'm confident that NICEIC Live will become a permanent fixture on the industry calendar for years to come."
NICEIC Live will be held on Thursday, 19 May, 2011, at Epsom Downs racecourse.
Tickets cost from £35 with early-bird rates available until February 25.
Attendees will receive a voucher book featuring discounts and special offers from leading electrical suppliers along with a free ticket to an Epsom race meeting.
