Lessons Learned
- Many of the startups were relatively small and have not pierced through into the industry consciousness.
- The lack of consistency in terms of which exhibits would be present on consecutive days made it difficult to properly schedule when and how to visit certain booths.
- Keep in mind that many booths lacked marketing professionals, but rather sales and product marketing teams.
- Schedule meetings beforehand with companies you’d like to speak with to maximize time and create a flow.
- Large attendance made it difficult to engage with companies, without having to wait in line, which made it feel like time was being somewhat squandered.
“Really large event at a great venue, would recommend. Plan your schedule meticulously and accordingly to make sure you’re able to speak with who you want.”
