benefits of Event Sponsorhip

"Our booth was well attended during breaks and networking sessions, and I made quite a number of new contacts.  In fact, shortly after the conference, I received three purchase orders from a new contact I made at the conference for some process chemistry work.  I will definitely exhibit at future OPRD conferences."

"Sci Update events are a good mix of industrial and academic scientists, when considering both the audience and the speakers. Besides allowing extensive networking, they give a valuable insight into the technologies industrials plan to use in the coming years and technologies academic scientists invent for the next 10 years."

"Penn Speciality Chemicals participated in the OPRD meetings in Nice and Vancouver 2006 with very good results. Penn increased their sales in Europe of 2MeTHF by 400% in 2006 and part of the exceptional result is undoubtedly related to the high quality leads uncovered at OPRD."
