Civils exhibition at Earl’s Court was a small, but interesting show. Although there seemed to be a lot of public sector exhibitors, they still have a tendancy to “talk amongst themselves” and not be too interested in private sector and particularly independent companies.
This is a shame, since many Government conferences and workshops continually stress how smaller enterprises can benefit form projects such as the olympic build and Crossrail, but when representatives from these organisations present themselves to the public, they seem less interested or knowledgable in how to deal with independents.
