Ipex 2010 exhibition preparations begin
IIR Exhibitions has met with the Ipex Advisory Committee (IAC) to discuss new ideas for the next Ipex exhibition, which will be held from May 18 - May 25 2010.
Overseas visitors are welcome throughout the eight days of the exhibition, but the International Days enable their needs to be better catered for.
Through the country-specific days, overseas visitors can be more focused and time-efficient at the show - and exhibitors can better manage international resources and information on their stands.
For example, exhibitors can maximise their investment in Ipex 2006 by planning for native speakers and sales teams to be present on their stands, and relevant literature to be available.
