Introducing Beacon of Light Membership
Supporters and the local community can now get even more from every visit to the Beacon of Light with the launch of Beacon of Light Membership.
North East Automotive Alliance (NEAA) returned to the Beacon of Light as they celebrated a landmark Expo 2024 event.
Around 1,000 visitors turned out to celebrate 10 years of the NEAA and their work showcasing the region’s prowess in the automotive sector.
The last few editions have all been held in Sunderland at the Beacon, which has become a proud home to an event which unites companies from across the supply chain to exchange ideas and inspire growth.
At the heart of the Expo is an opportunity to forge invaluable connections with like-minded professionals among the 100 exhibitors, 750 delegates, and visitors.
The Expo is more than just a trade show – it’s a hub of knowledge exchange and thought leadership.
Headline speakers took to the stage to deliver presentations and question and answer sessions.
