Exhibition FAQs

The OFS30 conference program is designed to attract a large number of delegates, including a distinguished set of invited speakers and international attendees from universities, research and development organizations, and industry. 

While working on their R&D projects, these delegates and their host institutions are the direct consumers of an enormous range of products and services. The conference brings together not only the decision-makers but also the people who use the equipment, influence the decisions, and are set to become the next generation of decision-makers.  

The OFS30 Technical Exhibition is an integral part of the conference program. For the delegates and speakers, it is an attraction in its own right, providing them with a collective shop window for the latest developments in instruments, products, equipment and consumables required for their R&D activities.

The Exhibition will take place in the foyer of the Raleigh Convention Center where the conference will be held, enabling very close interaction with OFS30 delegates and guests.
