An event report (130KB) is available.

Due to the fact that we received fewer applications than anticipated for the original event, we are delivering an alternative format for this exhibition tour to that originally planned – one that is more financially viable but does not in any way compromise the opportunities for promotion and recruitment.

Key details

The participation fee includes:

• venue hire
• PR campaign: advertising on the web, radio, newspapers, magazines, street banners, flyers, outdoor and other
• market briefing
• coach travel between recommended hotels and venues
• discounted hotel rates.

Stand sharing will be made available at a premium of twenty per cent on the stand costs.

Please note that the participation fee does not include international or domestic travel, accommodation, subsistence or freight, except where stated.

Visa requirements
Visas are not required for UK passport holders. Other passport holders should check with their travel agent or contact the Consulate or Embassy of the country they plan to visit.

Please note that there are strict policies imposed on PRC (Mainland) passport holders. We are aware that some UK institutions might have their Mainland Chinese colleagues representing them at the exhibitions and feel that we must inform you of the difficulties your Mainland Chinese colleagues may encounter when applying for a visa to enter Taiwan. PRC passport holders intending to attend the Exhibition are advised to contact the Taipei Representative Office as a matter of urgency.

Unfortunately, we are not able to assist with visa applications to Taiwan. Visitors will have to make their own arrangements through their travel agent or the Taipei Representative Office directly.
