Voice of Exhibitor
Mr Sebastian Griesel, Head of Lab Productivity Franchise | Merck Millipore, Lab Essentials | Merck KGaA, Germany
"Thailand LAB is quite an important event for Merck Millipore. This is the fifth time that we have attended the event; it has been a very nice platform for us to connect with customers. Thailand LAB has provided Merck Millipore with an opportunity to connect to international groups. One of the key values for Merck Millipore is trust, and trust can be established only by a direct relationship with our customers. This event has helped us to build that trust, learn about our customers' needs, and understand what has increased their needs in their daily laboratory practices. Therefore, we are very glad that we can be part of this event."
Voice of Visitor, Association and Speaker
Mr James A. Kaufman, PhD, President/CEO, the Laboratory Safety Institute (LSI), USA
"This is the second year that I have had a chance to come to Thailand LAB, and I'm really grateful for the opportunity to be here and to see that so many vendors are presenting products for laboratories. When I look around and see what they're doing, I think it’s wonderful that there are so many people here with a variety of interests. I'm looking forward to coming back next year and want to see even more vendors with laboratory safety products for the Thai market."
Voice of Exhibitor
Mr Nitin Bharara, Manager, Global Trade, Divine International, Delhi-India
"This is my second show at Thailand LAB. There is a good turnout of exhibitors, and I have seen the show expanded in front of me, even before that I came to visit the show, but now I have been participating in the show since the last two years. I have developed some very good contacts with the local dealers and distributors here and it takes time to turn contacts into businesses but then it is a good platform for doing business in Thailand. I think I will be coming back for the next show.
