FROM PRINT TO PODCAST.
CAMERA TO COMMENTARY.
Behind every advance in manufacturing are engineers solving problems.
Reducing set-up times. Improving repeatability. Increasing machine utilisation. Enabling automation. Finding better ways to hold difficult components. Making processes safer, faster and more productive.
NWSE Ireland 2026 brings international workholding specialists together with Ireland's manufacturing community for one focused day of technical education, applications, demonstrations and discussion.
For specialist manufacturing media, it creates an opportunity to meet the people behind the technologies, explore the applications they are helping to develop and discover stories worth sharing with your audience.
ONE EVENT
MULTIPLE TECHNOLOGIES
MANY STORIES
NWSE isn't being created as a trade show or sales exhibition.
It is being built around technical knowledge, practical applications and manufacturing education.
That makes it a different environment for editors, journalists, publishers, bloggers, podcasters, videographers and other specialist content creators.
Meet international technology specialists. Talk directly with speakers. Explore different workholding approaches. See demonstrations. Discuss applications. Ask technical questions.
Then decide for yourself what is relevant to your audience.
NO PRESCRIBED EDITORIAL AGENDA
NO OBLIGATION TO PUBLISH
JUST ACCESS TO PEOPLE, TECHNOLOGY AND STORIES
NWSE brings together specialist knowledge covering different approaches to modern workholding, including mechanical, magnetic, vacuum, adhesive, zero-point and specialised clamping technologies.
Media Industry Partners will have opportunities to engage directly with the international specialists participating in the event — the people who develop, apply and support these technologies in manufacturing environments around the world.
That creates opportunities for:
Technical interviews · Application stories · Expert commentary · Video content · Podcasts · Photography · Technology features · Industry discussion
Not every conversation has to become a story.
The objective is simply to put specialist manufacturing media and specialist manufacturing knowledge in the same place.
Manufacturing media has changed.
The NWSE Media Industry Partner Programme isn't restricted to traditional trade publications.
We welcome established organisations and specialist creators communicating professionally with manufacturing and engineering audiences through print, digital publishing, newsletters, video, podcasts, blogs and social platforms.
What matters is not the format.
WHAT MATTERS IS A GENUINE CONNECTION WITH MANUFACTURING AND ENGINEERING
Media Industry Partners don't have to come alone.
Alongside places for your own editorial or content team, we'll give you the opportunity to invite selected contacts from Ireland's manufacturing community to attend NWSE as your guests.
They might be readers, followers, contributors, manufacturing contacts or companies whose stories you already tell.
You choose the people who would benefit from being in the room.
YOU CHOOSE THE GUESTS
WE PROVIDE THE TECHNICAL ENVIRONMENT
Becoming an NWSE Media Industry Partner gives your organisation two complimentary ways to participate in NWSE Ireland 2026.
UP TO 2
For members of your own editorial or content team.
Media Partner Passes provide complimentary access to NWSE Ireland 2026, giving your team the opportunity to meet speakers and international workholding specialists, attend the technical programme, explore demonstrations and develop content from the people, technologies and applications brought together at the event.
UP TO 10
For selected contacts from Ireland's manufacturing community.
Choose the manufacturing professionals you believe would benefit from attending NWSE and invite them as your guests.
We'll provide a dedicated invitation and registration route so that the relationship between your organisation and the people you invite remains clear throughout the process.
YOUR INVITATIONS. YOUR RELATIONSHIPS.
A Media Industry Partnership with NWSE is about access — not editorial obligation.
We want specialist manufacturing media to be able to explore the technologies, meet the people involved and decide independently what is interesting and relevant to their audiences.
There is no requirement to publish before or after the event, no prescribed message and no expectation of favourable coverage.
Media Industry Partners remain entirely responsible for their own editorial decisions.
WE PROVIDE THE ACCESS
YOU DECIDE THE STORY
Good technical content often starts with access to the right people.
NWSE will help Media Industry Partners make productive use of their time at the event by facilitating introductions to speakers, workholding specialists and participating organisations wherever practical.
Depending on your requirements and the event programme, this could include opportunities for:
One-to-one interviews · Technical discussions · Speaker interviews · Photography · Video recording · Technology demonstrations · Application discussions · Post-event follow-up
If there is somebody you particularly want to meet or a technology you want to explore, tell us in advance.
We'll do our best to bring the right people together.
NWSE Ireland 2026 brings specialist workholding knowledge from internationally recognised technology organisations together in one focused event.
Different technologies. Different applications. Different perspectives.
Together they create an unusually concentrated opportunity to explore how workholding influences modern machining — from set-up reduction and component accessibility to repeatability, automation and machine utilisation.
EIGHT TECHNOLOGY SPECIALISTS
ONE DAY IN SHANNON
Tuesday, 10 November 2026
Future Mobility Campus Shannon · County Clare · Ireland
NWSE is deliberately focused.
Rather than trying to cover every aspect of manufacturing, the event concentrates on one subject that influences almost every machining operation:
How the component is held.
The programme brings together technical presentations, application knowledge, demonstrations, questions and direct discussion with specialists.
For manufacturing media, that means multiple potential subjects and conversations within one focused day.
EDUCATION | APPLICATION | IMPACT
We are inviting selected trade publications, specialist publishers, journalists, editors, bloggers, podcasters, videographers and professional manufacturing content creators serving the Irish manufacturing market to become NWSE Media Industry Partners.
Whether your audience finds you in print, online, in their inbox, through a podcast or in front of a camera matters less than the connection you have with manufacturing and engineering.
If your work helps manufacturers discover new ideas, technologies, applications and perspectives, we'd like you involved.
Become an NWSE Media Industry Partner and join us in Shannon on 10 November 2026 to meet the specialists, explore the applications and discover stories for your audience.
