Simon Albert, event director of Automechanika Birmingham, said, “I am delighted that the team has been recognised for its dedication and sheer hard work in making the show the success it is. To have achieved the level of recognition we have had already, in barely our third year, is a testament to that commitment. We are confident that our post event survey is what helped the event to be recognised for these awards; scoring 79% exhibitor satisfaction and 85% of visitors who intend to return to the event demonstrates focus for the event that the automotive industry needs.”
