GAMBICA
Overseas Programme
GAMBICA organises British participation at a broad range of overseas exhibitions in the laboratory, instrumentation and control sectors, normally through the Tradeshow Access Programme (TAP) of UK Trade & Investment (UKTI), the government network dedicated to building British business overseas.
This scheme provides financial support for eligible companies taking part in the co-ordinated British groups. Companies participating independently of the group may be able to claim support via the UKTI's ‘Solo Support' scheme.

GAMBICA's
overseas programme
Pittcon
Pittcon - the Pittsburgh Conference and Exhibition is one of two major international fairs dedicated to analytical instrumentation and laboratory equipment, the other being Analytica, Germany. The exhibition is the key event to identify distribution outlets for UK products and for this reason is very important for existing exporters and particularly for new exhibitors approaching the US market for the first time. Approximately 12 UK companies participate with support from GAMBICA and UKTI.

ANALYTICA 2008 is one of the top ranking international fairs for the laboratory supply industry. At the 2006 event there were just under 1,000 exhibitors and some 26,000 visitors. These numbers were up on estimates, despite the date clash with the Achema exhibition in 2006. This is probably the major international event in 2008.
