Description

Innovate UK KTN exists to connect innovators with new partners and new opportunities beyond their existing thinking - accelerating ambitious ideas into real-world solutions. Innovate UK KTN is looking to appoint a suitably qualified exhibition design company to design, manufacture install and derig an exhibition stand for the Innovation Zero Congress (https://www.innovationzero.com/welcome-to-innovation-zero) on 24-25 May in Olympia, London. We expect to work closely with the chosen company to develop and realise the stand in a creative, eco-conscious and impactful way that is relevant and accessible to our audiences. Innovate UK is organising a cross-government stand with representatives from multiple organisations. Innovate UK KTN will be leading on the design and build and management of the stand. This is a two-day, b2b clean tech congress which aims to accelerate business action towards Net Zero commitments. There are two spaces of 72sqm (6x12m) each. The attached floor plan shows the current exhibition layout. There is a main gangway between the two spaces. The spaces should meet the objectives outlined below, appeal to the specific target audiences and meet our requirements for brand visibility. The objectives of the stand are to: • Showcase Innovate UK - the UK's innovation agency • Put the agencies involved at the heart of the race to achieve Net Zero • Create an audience experience which encourages engagement and interaction • Create a stand-journey that furthers the audience's understanding of the different agencies and their contribution to the race for Net Zero • Deliver a clear vision of all Innovate UK services • Showcase how Innovate UK supports innovation via live demonstrations/exhibits The theme for the stand will be worked on with the chosen supplier but as a guide should include: • Net Zero - a future of opportunity • Creating a better future by investing in innovation This will be an opportunity for significant brand positioning and awareness for Innovate UK and display of its brand must be a primary consideration. Following sign-off of detailed designs, the agency will undertake production design and specification of all exhibition elements. The materials selected should demonstrate best-practice in Net Zero and sustainability and consider reuse or recycling. The build must be durable and easy to clean. The structures must be compliant with relevant statutory and non-statutory requirements e.g. Health & Safety regulations, Equality Act legislation, be constructed of fire retardant materials and follow best practice procedures. All rights (including ownership and copyright) will pass to Innovate UK KTN on completion of this project.
