EIC Connect is the EIC’s flagship series of events for SME’s (small to medium

sized enterprises) to discover the potential of supplying their goods or services

into major overseas energy projects by meeting the operators and contractors,

listening to their presentations and networking with their industry peers.

Established in 2002, this is a not-for-profit initiative of the EIC and as such, the

low delegate fee attracts up to 1000 delegates to the event. Operators and

contractors get to share their global supplier requirements and/or knowledge of

their global markets to the smaller companies for a good cause. In turn,

presenting companies gain a better understanding of UK expertise and capability

overseas to help shape their future supplier strategies.

The EIC Connect Advisory Board comprising of key participants from operator

companies, contractors and leading SME communities are instrumental in

shaping the event programme and I would like to thank them personally for their

continued support.

Hugh Saville

Managing Director

Minster International

I have attended every EIC Connect event held in the UK since the inaugural

event in 2008. The standard and coverage of speakers has consistently

risen to the point that now an EIC Connect event is a “must attend” for any

company wanting to meet key senior supply chain managers from a range

of global and gas operators and contractors. The amount of information

available in a single day under one roof is probably unmatched in our

industry and gives excellent value for money.

About Minster International:

For over 15 years, Minster International has offered bespoke business development services to SMEs in

the oil, gas and petrochemical industries. Market data, including contemporary information on supply

chain structures and current workloads of contractors and operators are essential to us to enable us to

information and networking for us.
