Businesses from Kent will get a chance to show off their technological expertise at an exhibition in April.

Make IT work, at the University of Kent, Canterbury, on April 11, is organised by Kent Technology Transfer Centre (KTTC) and funded by Business Link Kent.

Peter Parsons, chief executive of KTTC said: "Make IT Work is a showcase for Kent's most innovative companies and gives exhibitors the perfect opportunity to boost their business by meeting potential clients from the local business community.

"There is a huge amount of work to be had in the hi-tech field in Kent and Medway. This event is designed to encourage local companies to make the best use of the expertise which exists on their doorstep and to introduce local purchasers and suppliers to each other.

"By teaming up with the university and its unit for regional innovation and enterprise we are able to provide a convenient location and take advantage of the expertise that the venue offers."
