CONNOLLY’S Red Mills will partner the Irish Thoroughbred Breeders’ Association for the ITBA Expo 2018 which takes place at Goffs on January 26th and 27th.

The equine trade fair will bring together over 90 exhibitors to present and sell their products and services to thoroughbred enthusiasts, showcasing the latest advances in technology, machinery, veterinary science and equine nutrition.

Over 3,500 people are expected to attend over the two days.

The Expo was previously staged in Leopardstown and Goffs.

A range of educational and commercial presentations and workshops are being planned. Day 1 will focus on careers and education, while Day 2 sees the emphasis on technology and innovation. More details will be announced in the coming weeks.

ITBA CEO Shane O’Dwyer said: “The Expo will showcase the latest innovations in technology, veterinary medicine, equine nutrition, stallion selection, land management and machinery.

“We’re all aware of the challenges facing our industry but this Expo, and particularly our forum ‘What if – a vision for 2028” will be about identifying the solutions and stimulating action. We’re looking forward to announcing our panel in the coming weeks.”

Gareth Connolly, sales and marketing director of Connolly’s Red Mills, said: “The Expo will provide a platform to reflect on the key learnings over the last 10 years and create the opportunity to map the vision for the next 10; we are looking forward to being part of this exciting event.”
