Get involved with any of a number of unique and exclusive networking events over the course of the two days.
From AGM's to working group meetings to full scale conferences and workshops, EFD plays host to a range of networking events. We know how important events are for facilitating social and business opportunities - both locally and internationally.
In addition to structured meetings, we have a range of networking rooms, areas and cafes located on the exhibition floor for informal meetings and business discussions.
Located right in the heart of ESS Expo, take a break from the hustle & bustle of the shows and carry on those critical conversations with customers, suppliers, or colleagues in a more relaxed setting, over a tea or coffee!
Our free-to-attend programme of inspiring keynotes, interactive speaker presentations and lively panel discussions runs over the course of the whole show. View our sister show's programme from last year to give you an idea of what to expect.
Discover the hottest new start-ups in the sector at this central hub dedicated to highlighting innovation and sharing new ideas.
Expect to catch future industry leaders, who will be showcasing their latest products, technologies and game-changing solutions. Remember, you saw them here first!
Women in Sustainability is a networking platform for men and women in our industry. Explore factors that can positively influence or constrain a women’s career and work choices and share success stories from within the waste, recycling and sustainability sector.
