FPC has always been the perfect show for us.
Best value for money conference I have ever attended; an excellent mix of relevant subjects covered and at the right technical level.
All the right people for successful networking, interesting session topics and a good range of technology on display at the exhibition.
Found it good experience to attend the conference, exchanging knowledge, making contacts and seeing what major companies in the area are currently working on.
FPC is always one the most useful and productive events that I attend during the year!
FPC was great, I really enjoyed my day and will definitely be coming back next year.
