FOR EVENT MANAGERS / ORGANISERS

Our services aren’t just of benefit to exhibitors, we work with a number of exhibition organisers to help add value to their events and generate higher levels of re-booking for future shows.

Here is a taste of some of projects we can support Event Organisers with:

Live Theatre Programming & Content Curation: developing engaging and innovative content through identifying and booking relevant keynote speakers
Live Theatre Delivery: pre-show management and on-site delivery of live features areas including all speaker liaison, content creation (incl. slides and video) and AV requirements
Exhibitor Training Workshops: tailored to your specific event delivered either face-to-face, through e-learning and webinars or telephone / video conferencing consultancy
Show Opening Bootcamps: 30 minute sessions prior to doors opening to give last minute hints, tips and advice to exhibitors that can impact positively on their day
Visitor Recruitment Campaigns: including brand ambassador and street teams, PR and media activity, including video production and direct mail initiatives
Objective Show Analysis: delivering a full overview and feedback of your event from visitors, exhibitors, speakers and other key stakeholders
Added Value Initiatives: development and delivery of other key show zones and events such as Digital Lounge, Networking Space and Awards Dinners
Conference / Event Co-Ordination: managing all booking, organisation and communication with delegates and venues for added value events such as dinners, awards ceremonies and conferences
The Exhibitionist Book : We can offer discounts on both our book and the journal for volume orders which could be given to your top exhibitors or as part of an early bird offer to push your re-book initiatives and you can also re-sell additional books to other exhibitors via your own website. We can also look at branding the covers with your Company logo, your Event logo or logos associated with your headline sponsors.

These are just some examples of the types of projects we have been involved with on behalf of event organisers but we would be delighted to discuss your ideas about how we might help support your needs.

Below are some examples of recent events where we are/have worked on behalf of Event Organisers
