It seems like only yesterday I was at the 2013 CV Show, but as the holiday season gets under way we are already planning next year's event - which has seen healthy interest from a broad range of exhibitor companies booking their space early.
Before we get to CV Show 2014, there's another event keeping the commercial vehicle industry at the front of people's minds. For the second year, we'll hold the CV Forum, a debate and discussion event for senior industry executives, key politicians and media. Chaired by broadcaster Justin Webb, the half-day forum will be held at the British Museum on 22 October. A line-up of high-profile speakers will explore world-class business efficiency in the sector and consider how the UK can set the benchmark for the European road transport sector.
