Rutgers Researchers Invited to Find New Lab Supplies at May Product Faire Event

The 1st Annual BioResearch Product Faire™ Event is a chance for researchers, PIs, lab managers, professors, post docs, grad students, purchasing agents, and other lab staff to meet face-to-face with different lab supply companies to learn about new tools and technologies that are available.  

At the event, researchers from all departments and buildings related to life sciences will be able to learn about new products from different laboratory supply companies. All researchers who attend will have the opportunity to meet face-to-face with sales reps in a professional and friendly environment. Instead of traveling door-to-door and interrupting your work, sales reps from different companies will be in one room, making it convenient for you to speak with them on your own time.

By meeting with reps from different companies, you'll be able to: 

• Learn about new lab supplies and technologies that are available to help further their work.
• Meet with companies who already supply your lab to see what new products they have available and discover new companies that have supplies that will benefit your lab work, or have supplies you never knew you needed but that will come in handy in the future.
• Compare products, prices and brands to learn about what products best fit your needs and funding.
• Express product concerns, ask questions, and get quick responses.
• Save lab time in the future by meeting with numerous lab suppliers in one place, instead of meetingwith them individually in your lab, while you're trying to work.
• Schedule equipment demos with companies from the event so your lab can decide what equipment is the most needed.

Network with Industry Professionals and Fellow Rutgers Researchers

Since researchers from all across campus are invited to the event, you will be able to network with hundreds of researchers from dozens of departments and research buildings on campus to learn about other research being conducted at your university. You can also connect with industry professionals with access to decades of life science knowledge and education, and establish new professional contacts for your future. 

Take a Break from Your Normal Routine

By attending the event, you not only have the opportunity to find new supplies, but you also have the chance to win door prizes and collect giveaway items. 

• Enjoy a complimentary lunch of pizza and lemonade
• Enter to win a Kindle Fire
• Arrive early and grab your very own #ScienceNinja t-shirt
• Come after 12:00 p.m. and have the chance to take home a #ScienceNinja lab coat.
