EXHIBITOR SUSTAINABILITY CHECKLIST
Firstly we have put together a useful checklist for you to follow on how you can exhibit at our event more sustainably - click here to learn more
BETTER STANDS
Through our commitment to the evolution of the exhibitions industry, we aim to ensure that we are delivering the best possible experience for our customers. We believe that by moving away from the use of disposable exhibition booth we will improve the ease, quality, safety and sustainability of the exhibitor experience at our events. Therefore, as part of event regulation we ask that exhibitors do not use disposable booth. Disposable booths are defined as space only stands made to be used only once which are usually constructed from raw materials at the venue during build up and the main structure is disposed of after the event.

VIRTUAL BOOTH
The Virtual Booth page allows you to connect directly with attendees. It's a place for you to display content such as videos, images, and documents. Each hub can hold up to 3 videos and 10 documents. Attendees can also connect with you and your team on the booth, through video chat and the messenger function. You can even host 1-1 meeting on your hub - simply arrange to meet your attendees at your hub in your Demo Room.
The Virtual Booth can also be branded including the backdrop customised with your logo and company colours. Every part of the booth is designed to fit your company as it would at a physical event.
When the Virtual Booth platform launches for you to edit, we will reach out with a Virtual Booth Build Demo Video and Sponsor Guide to assist you in creating this.
