Later today, TechFest will open its doors for the second event of the year, this time at the CBS Arena in Coventry for an evening of the very latest aftermarket technology, face-to-face conversations with leading suppliers, and plenty of offers and freebies to see guests through the evening.
The event is growing rapidly in popularity thanks to its amazing atmosphere and evening timeslot, welcoming garage owners and technicians to an insightful and informal evening of all-things aftermarket.
Doors open at 3pm, with excitement going on until 10pm. Guests are welcome to arrive any time throughout the evening to soak up the atmosphere, with all catering and drinks complimentary for trade visitors.
At the heart of the show, the Main Stage will host guest speakers from across the industry, featuring live demonstrations and practical insights. Experts Ambi Singh, Mark Field and Matt Cleevely will feature on the stage to discuss a variety of topics to help garages stay competitive.
Designed to keep you ahead in a rapidly evolving industry, a series of TechTalks will cover essential topics such as business growth and electrification in a condensed, bitesize format.
Highlights will include motoring journalist, social media star, and author Mat Watson on the Main Stage. Having amassed several million followers, he will discuss how he helped carwow become one of the most recognisable UK automotive brands using social media marketing, as well as tips on how garages can harness the power of digital marketing to grow their online presence and attract customers.
