Almost 150 guests came together at the Kent Event Centre yesterday for the Kent 2020 Exhibitor Information & Networking Exchange, taking place ahead of this year’s Kent 2020 Vision LIVE on Wednesday 13th May 2015.
Kent 2020 celebrates its 10th Anniversary this year and the pre-event exhibitor meeting provided a great opportunity for participants to begin planning and doing business with each other ahead of the main event. Historically, many exhibitors recoup their investment in the show before it even starts, simply by doing business with other companies that are taking part, eg. designing graphics for stands, printing promotional materials, providing giveaways or starting marketing campaigns to tie into their presence in May.
After a warm welcome from BSK’s new CEO Alex Ledger and Mark Dance from Kent County Council, attendees were treated to masses of practical advice on getting the most from the May event, presented by Nick Litton from Revolution Events, aided by some useful video input from Ronnie Pratten of RP Communications – plus additional insights on PR, social media and search marketing from Katie King & Nick Huxsted from Zoodikers and a high-energy session with special guest speaker Jonathan Jay of Digital Lighthouse, widely regarded as a pioneer in the world of direct and digital marketing.
