Sophie Atkinson, Head of Events for PLASA, said, “this year’s PLASA Focus Leeds is in a really strong position, with brands and organisations from all walks of the industry coming together to share their technological offerings and their expertise and ideas.
"We say it every year, but there really is something for everyone at the show this year—the programme is bigger than ever and there are plenty of new names to say hello to. Not to mention, the new and improved courtyard which is always a popular spot to mingle and relax. I hope you’ll join us, along with the spring sunshine!”
