Big Ambition - Part 2

7th November 2012

BIG Ambition for Working At Height Limited at the BIG 5 Show in Dubai - Part 2 

As a an SME (small to medium enterprise) we believe this was an ambitious move, that will pay off, just the logistics alone was a very great challenge, but as the photo shows we had quite a smart if not small booth, but we believe quite an impressive stand considering we were 3,000 miles from home, and the only UK company exhibiting at the FM Expo at the BIG 5, and furthest travelled exhibitors also, so quite an achievement.
 
We were delighted and excited on the first morning of the show to have a visit from the UK Prime Minister David Cameron, who was in the region for three days to close sales of the Typhoon fighter aircraft but took the time to stop and visit the show with Lord Green the Trade and Industry Minister, there were a total of 46 UK exhibitors at the main show and under the UK Pavilion umbrella, however Working At Height were 'flying solo' at the FM Expo.
 
And it would seem that the government are putting our money where their mouths are, as on the evening of the 5th of November we were invited to the British Embassy in Dubai for drinks hosted by Lord Green, where Lord Green also gave a very heartfelt thank you to us for making such an effort and helping the UK economy to grow.
