The different conference streams address practical relevant issues of the industry".
The delegates represented the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, chemical, healthcare and food and beverage sectors.

Feedback from the leading companies exhibiting at L.A.B 2007 suggests that we have developed a good formula for a UK show, and that combined with their suggested amendments, we will produce a platform on which companies can successfully showcase their products in 2009.
We appreciate the support of all our exhibitors and attendees who made the first show happen".
L.A.B closed with a total of 88 exhibitors, 1300 trade visitors and approximately 120 conference delegates.
A biennial event, the next L.A.B will be held in the UK in the second half of 2009.
