Inspire the Next Generation - Exhibit at NMD25
West Yorkshire manufacturing companies are invited to take part in our National Manufacturing Day Showcase 2025 – an exciting opportunity to engage with the next generation and highlight the incredible career opportunities within our sector.
Building on the success of previous years, WYMS is proud to be hosting our ‘Meet the Manufacturers’ open event, as part of Make UK’s National Manufacturing Day celebrations. This annual event has become the flagship date in our calendar, drawing in students, educators, job seekers, and community members to explore what modern manufacturing really looks like.
One of the most pressing challenges currently facing the manufacturing and engineering sectors is attracting young people into the workforce. With skills gaps growing and many experienced professionals nearing retirement, there has never been a more important time to take action and invest in our future talent pipeline.
This is where your company can make a real difference.
By exhibiting at NMD25 for just £150, you’ll have the chance to:
- Showcase your business and the exciting work you do
- Demonstrate practical applications of manufacturing and engineering
- Inspire young people by sharing your career journeys and advice
- Engage with schools and colleges to highlight employability skills and apprenticeships
- Build awareness of the many rewarding career paths available in your organisation and the wider industry
Your presence at this event will help to spark curiosity in the minds of future engineers, designers and technicians.
Our previous events have proven just how valuable this kind of engagement can be – from hands-on demonstrations and interactive displays to machinery showcases.
Let’s work together to inspire, educate and inform.
The next generation needs to see the creativity, technology, and variety that lies within our sector – and with your help, we can deliver a memorable experience that opens doors and creates opportunities.
