Kent Event Centre, Detling, ME14 3JF

When will Business Vision LIVE take place?

Wednesday 10th May 2023

Why should I exhibit?

Business Vision LIVE is the South East’s premier business event. Exhibiting is an excellent platform to make new business connections, network, raise your company’s profile and brand awareness as well as promote your services.

Who attends?

Each year over 2000 board level/senior management visitors from the South East attend the event to build their network of contacts, find inspiration away from the workplace, get a general overview of other businesses in the South East and to source potential new suppliers.

Can I have a list of the delegates attending?

We can provide you with a sample delegate list but not a full preregistered list.

How much does it cost to exhibit?

Exhibitor/Speaker Package details and costs can be found in the Event Prospectus, contact the sales team on 01892 820930 or email emily@revolution-events.com for a copy.

Can I share a stand with another company?

Yes – we charge an additional £150+VAT (on top of the stand cost) to ensure that both companies get an event guide entry, linked logo on the website and both company names are on the nameboard above your stand.

Can we serve food/drinks on our stand?

It would depend on what you had in mind, please contact Eli our Operations Manager: eli@revolution-events.com to discuss further.

Can I have helium balloons attached to my stand to give us even more of a presence?

This needs to be pre-approved and depends on the location of your stand, please contact Eli our Operations Manager: eli@revolution-events.com to discuss further.

Can we play music on our stand?

This depends on your stand location, it would need to be kept at an agreed volume and if it isn’t your own material, we need to ensure that it is licenced to be used.

Is there free wifi?

Yes! There is free, unsupported Wi-Fi at the Kent Event Centre for all attendees and exhibitors to use on the day. A hardwired connection is available for your stand if you would prefer, at an additional cost of £150+VAT. Please inform the sales team if you would like to add hardwiring to your package.

Will there be food and drink served on the day?

Yes, we have a large catering area in the John Hendry Pavilion for food and another catering area in the Maidstone Exhibition Hall for drinks and snacks. As an exhibitor you will be given free lunch vouchers as part of your package based on the size of your stand. There is also free tea and coffee for everyone throughout the day.

As well as exhibiting, we have Roundtable Sessions, Workshop/Speaking Sessions and other various Sponsorship Opportunities, please speak to the sales team for more information on 01892 820930 or email emily@revolution-events.com.

What other ways can we get delegates’ information?

This year we are using a new system which will allow you access to your leads in real time. All delegates will be wearing a badge with a QR code, once set up, the 'Live Lead App' will allow you to scan delegates badges on your smart phone or tablet and receive their contact data via the exhibitor portal.
