Euro Bus Expo 2008 (EBE08) took place at the National Exhibition Centre (NEC) in Birmingham on 4-6th November, with leading industry names from countries including Belgium, France, Germany, Holland, Italy, Scandinavia, Spain, Turkey and of course the UK contributing to over 300 exhibitors taking part.

Navaho and Configure Ltd attended and exhibited at the show and showcased their automotive media solution. Demonstrating how the solution is currently being used in the Bus industry and how best to implement the system to potential users. More than 10,000 attendees came to Birmingham for what was one of the largest trade only shows to take place at the NEC this year and the largest dedicated show for the coach and bus sector of its kind in Europe in 2008. Speaking at the end of the three day event, Show Director Mark Griffin said, “We will be undertaking some detailed survey work in the coming weeks with both exhibitors and visitors to get as broad a picture as possible of the reaction to the event. However initial anecdotal evidence points to a genuine feeling of optimism and the overriding message that the industry is bucking the general economic trend. I believe EBE08 has really given our industry the shot in the arm that we have all been looking for.”
