Following the record-breaking success of last year’s event, EDS continues to cement its role as the go-to destination for engineers seeking the latest technologies, tools, and strategies shaping the future of product development.

Where Design Engineers Meet Technology Trailblazers

At the heart of EDS 2025 lies a dynamic exhibition floor that connects design engineers directly with the innovators shaping tomorrow’s technology landscape. With over 200 leading suppliers in attendance, the show spans a wide array of sectors, including 3D printing, PCB manufacturing, embedded systems, motors, sensors, robotics, and more.

Whether you're sourcing a new design partner, evaluating prototype solutions, or simply scouting the latest engineering breakthroughs, EDS delivers unrivalled access to cutting-edge technologies, all under one roof.

With a mix of established names and rising innovators from across the UK and beyond, the exhibition is a springboard for ideas, partnerships, and next-generation product development.

Future-Focused Learning: Conferences, Workshops, and Live Demos

EDS 2025 isn’t just about seeing the latest innovations, it’s about understanding them. Across two days, attendees will have access to 50+ expert-led conference sessions delivered across three curated streams, in partnership with The Engineer, Eureka!, and New Electronics.

Covering topics such as real-world design challenges, breakthrough technologies, sustainable engineering, and AI integration, the programme offers a balance of technical insight and strategic foresight.

For those looking to apply knowledge on the spot, hands-on workshops will take place in two dedicated theatres, giving engineers the opportunity to upskill in tools, techniques, and problem-solving approaches.

Meanwhile, the Innovation Zone returns to spotlight pioneering developments like Creative Hubb Ltd’s EOD bomb disposal suit and Dennistries’ NextGen robotics range, while KUKA will showcase its next-generation Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs), offering a glimpse into the future of smart manufacturing and intralogistics.

Engagement Beyond the Exhibition Floor

EDS 2025 goes beyond traditional trade show experiences by offering dynamic spaces for engagement, relaxation, and inspiration. Back by popular demand, the Games Zone returns with F1 racing simulators and interactive challenges, giving attendees a chance to unwind, compete with peers, and test their reflexes between sessions.

For those seeking a quieter space to recharge or connect, the Chill & Charge Zone provides a relaxed environment ideal for informal networking, catching up with colleagues, or simply taking a well-earned break.

Championing the next generation of design talent, Nottingham Trent University’s Student Showcase returns, highlighting bold ideas and cutting-edge prototypes from tomorrow’s innovators. It’s a unique opportunity to engage with fresh perspectives and emerging voices in product design.

Secure Your Place at EDS 2025

Registration for EDS 2025 is now officially open, and it’s completely free to attend. Whether you're an engineer, innovator, or decision-maker, this is your chance to be part of the UK’s most comprehensive design engineering event.
