The 8th Connected Manufacturing Forum will be taking place in St. Louis June 23-24th Sponsorship is now available, I'm currently having meetings with potential sponsors to discuss the conference. In my meetings and calls with potential sponsors, one of the most common wants I hear is “we want leads” “we want to talk to a lot of people”, and that's a big reason to sponsor a conference, take senior product and sales person off work, to take 2 or 3 days from the office to go network with potential clients. There is no magic formula, and for that reason, I always try to play to the strengths of the organization and person I am talking to. The most important thing when sponsoring is making your presence felt, how you go about that can be different depending on the strengths of the team that you send to the show to representing your company. Is it networking? Demos? Giveaways? Thought leadership? However, there are things that you should always strive to do at a conference: Have a plan Put in the work BEFORE the show Divide and conquer, once at the conference Be proactive Talk to as many people as you get a chance to #connectedmanufacturing #industry4.0 #supplychain #digitaltransformation #digitaltwin #industry5.0 #networking #conference Rachael Berkoff Lauren B. thanks for helping me with the edit :)

I recently attended the NPE 2024 show and I believe it'll be the closet comparison of standing inside Willy Wonka's chocolate factory. The machines independently making pneumatic noise and feeling the heat generated from the machines in the air is quite the experience. This truly opened my eyes of how BIG an industry can be and more importantly how vital networking is for businesses no matter how big or small playing an important role. Walking around with my eyes wide open like a kid in a candy store. I was able to shake hands, exchange business cards, and offered my services in transportation management. This made me wonder if tradeshows are a success for businesses or have a return on investment. Do you find success attending tradeshows? Is the networking worth the time and travel? If you have any stories of success attending a tradeshow in the past please share. *I couldn't resist taking a picture of the F1 simulator*

Imagine getting months of brand exposure in just a few hours? ..... that’s the power of exhibiting at business expos.” Expos aren’t just events; they’re engines for growth. Exhibiting at a business expo is a unique chance to connect face-to-face with potential clients, partners, and industry leaders in a setting built for engagement. In the UK, 81% of trade show attendees have buying authority, meaning they’re there to find solutions and make decisions. That’s direct access to your target audience and an opportunity to showcase your brand in a memorable way. Beyond immediate leads, expos strengthen brand visibility, foster trust, and create partnerships that can have a lasting impact. If you’re looking to elevate your presence in the industry, expos are a proven, high-impact platform to consider. Steve Page MIH Hannah Sheppard Paul Marcus #BusinessExpos #Networking #BrandGrowth
