S708 HALF-DAY WORKSHOP:
International Exhibiting – A Primer for Success
|
This half-day workshop will present a 360 degree
view of international exhibiting; examining the
three familiar planning phases:
|
| • | Pre-Show: determining tactics for global brand
positioning, successful interface with show
organizers, choice of international service
providers and budget control
|
| • | Show-Site: examine the various cultures and
regulatory environments and give insight to
the extra challenges compared to exhibiting
domestically
|
| • | Post-Show: determining the success of the
exhibition from a number of perspectives: ROI,
market penetration, message delivery
This is an ideal workshop for exhibit managers new
to the international marketplace as well as giving
a good holistic review for more seasoned hands.
