Plumbing training apprentices could stand to benefit from attending a networking event set to take place in Rotterdam on October 15th and 16th.

According to Van den Meijdenberg, who is organising the event, UK meets NL will give people in the industry a chance to meet with like-minded professionals and learn about new international business opportunities.

His comments follow an announcement that construction expert Mike Holland will be speaking to delegates at the conference about the market for construction goods and services in the UK.

"More and more people are looking for inspiration. We can see this in the popularity of our face-to-face events and online meetings as well as the increased interest in our Anglo-Dutch network," stated Mr den Meijdenberg.

He added that workers involved in the construction industry are all bound to be successful if they embrace the increased support being offered from the other side of the North Sea.
