Speaking with the Marketing Partner for the Show, Jarmila Yu of YUnique Marketing, she said, “It’s great to see past exhibitors return and welcome new ones too. This year I offered each exhibitor the opportunity to have a complimentary 1:1 with me, to guide them on maximising their return from the show as there’s so much potential value it’s often easy to miss a trick or two. It’s excellent to see E3 Consulting, a new exhibitor setting a great example of how to lean in and get fully involved, to best connect with the Construction and Property sector. Business is an ecosystem; and to drive success 3 c’s are vital: connection, collaboration and camaraderie – the Expo is a great demonstration of that”.
