Lead Insights Webinar
Please join us for the Lead Insights webinar on Monday November 23rd at 12pm EST.
As an exhibitor, you now have access to Lead Insights as part of your exhibitor package, complementing MicroSpec's Lead Retrieval system. This powerful platform allows you to rate, view, manage, and export all your interaction and campaign data in one centralized location.
How It Works:
Simply use your MicroSpec Lead Retrieval device to scan attendee badges, and all information will automatically appear on your Lead Insights Dashboard. The system analyzes this collected data within twenty-four hours, providing comprehensive visibility into all interactions—which you can then view, filter, and export directly from the dashboard.
Getting Started:
You'll receive access credentials and additional information via email from leadinsights@informa.com in November.
Lead Insights goes beyond basic lead retrieval by turning raw contact data into actionable sales intelligence. While lead retrieval captures attendee information through badge scanning, Lead Insights analyzes visitor behavior, engagement patterns, and demographic data to create detailed prospect profiles. The key benefit is the depth of information. Instead of a simple contact list, exhibitors gain insights into buying intent, readiness indicators, and personalized follow-up recommendations. This allows sales teams to prioritize leads, tailor messaging, and close deals faster.

Exhibitor SPAM Alert
The Buildings Show has learned from several exhibitors and attendees they are receiving scam emails offering attendee lists for purchase.
Please be aware these offers are fraudulent. We do not sell or release data and have strict policies around the protection of data at Informa. These scammers do not have any relationship with The Buildings Show or Informa and they do NOT have the data they are attempting to sell.
Please note that The Buildings Show/INFORMA will NEVER ask for payment via e-transfer.
We continually work with our Show Management and legal team in sending the spammers cease and desist letters; however they are persistent and continue to send under different email addresses and different aliases. If you receive one of these emails, please BLOCK and MARK AS SPAM in your inbox, and forward it to spam@fightspam.gc.ca. In addition, we recommend to review our Authorized Suppliers List to familiarize with the suppliers who will be reaching out to you for only show specific purposes and your involvement in The Buildings Show.
