ISPE Boston Chapter Product Show

Sharpe Mixers exhibited at the ISPE Boston Chapter Product show on October 1, 2014.

The International Society of Pharmaceutical Engineers encourages local chapters to produce these one-day exhibits.

They take place all around the country.  Sharpe Mixers participates in several of them, including Boston, Philadelphia and San Francisco.

This is one of the biggest chapter product shows in the country, attracted several hundred vendors to Gillette Stadium, home of the New England Patriots.

This year’s show was the biggest ever.  Attendees kept up a constant flow through the two clubhouse exhibit areas.

Quite a few of our customers in the New England area stopped by to say hello and see what’s new at Sharpe Mixers.

Many of our customers also exhibit at this show, including vessel fabricators, systems integrators, consulting engineers and contractors.

These table top shows offer a lot of bang for the buck.

 

Look into ISPE Chapter exhibits, as well as other engineering and production societies like ASME, Mid-West Food Processors and others for opportunities.

ISPE Boston Chapter Product Show

October 3, 2012

Sharpe Mixers has been exhibiting at this event for over 10 years.

It is one of the biggest ISPE Product Shows in the country.

Since the show moved to Gillette Stadium, home of the New England Patriots, it has grown even more.

There are more vendors and more attendees than any other event of its kind.

Sharpe Mixers exhibited at this event along with our local sales representatives, Perrigo Inc.
This year we saw a lot of attendees from Biogen IDEC, Abbott Bioresearch, Shire Corp, Amgen,DPS Biometics, Lonza Biologics, Organogenesis, Pfizer, Siemens, Xcellerex and from Genzyme.

The usual cast of consulting engineers and systems suppliers were in attendance as well.
Sharpe Mixers observed a lot of interest in our all stainless steel portable mixers and the PB-Series of small biopharm mixers. Our line of lift stands was also drawing a lot of attention.

Do you have an ISPE chapter in your area? Do they sponser a similar event? Sharpe Mixers would be happy to talk with you about exhibiting.

2011 ISPE Delaware Valley Chapter Vendor Night

Sharpe Mixers exhibited at the 2011 ISPE Delaware Valley Chapter Vendor Night that took place on Feb 9, 2011 at Citizens Bank Park, home of the Philadelphia Phillies baseball team.

The ISPE, International Society of Pharmaceutical Engineers, through its local chapters, sponsors these table top exhibits around the country. This gives local members a change to get out and meet with their peers, enjoy a drink and some excellent food, and visit with their suppliers, new and old. They are a great opportunity for us to meet local customers in the biotech and pharmaceutical markets.

Like the Boston Chapter Product Show that takes place at Gillette Stadium, home of the New England Patriots football team, the Philadelphia show had outgrown the hotel venue and was moved to Citizens Bank Park.

And like the Boston show, this move proved to be an excellent choice. This was the 21st annual Vendor Night and, according to the ISPE-DVC, the most successful and best attended in the event’s 20 year history. Part of the success is probably due to the venue. People like visiting these sports stadiums. We hope that this is also a sign of an improving business climate.
Sharpe Mixers was supported by our local sales representative, Tom McDonough with Matak LLC. Tom worked with the ISPE DVC so that several of his suppliers were side by side at the exhibit. We called the area “McDonough Place”!

We are encouraged that business in the biotech and pharmaceutical markets will see some growth this coming year, based on conversations we had with customers and suppliers, alike.
If you are involved in the biotech – pharmaceutical industries and you would like Sharpe Mixers to participate in a local chapter Vendor night, please let us know.
