Photonex 2010 - launch of event today, are companies more confident this year?

We wrote to all of last year's exhibitors today and are hoping to hear promptly from companies who know it is a good thing to have a stand in a good location. Will there be a scrabble for the best 'spots'?

The floorplan we are offering has a few feature positions and activities within the halls to make sure the visitors flow throughout the whole hall.

We expect a good response form the exhibitors who attended our open day two weeks ago, let's wait and see.

Photonex Visit to Telford well received

17 companies were represented at our 'last year's exhibitors' open house meeting at the International Centre in Telford on the 16th March. I presented the developments going on with Photonex, took questions and then we all walked the exhibition halls.

People were impressed and felt the venue was refreshingly smart and convenient. Several attendees expressed their surprise about their quick journey and one company phoned me the next day to comment that they made it back to Surrey in less than 2 hours.

The new venue is seen as a refreshing change and a great opportunity for renewal.

We know it won't always be traffic free on the motorways, but it is very encouraging that it was found to be accessible and easy to get to.
