Elevate your brand with our online tools
As an exhibitor you can work with us to define who visits MATEXPO… As a trade show, MATEXPO provides plenty of online support for exhibitors. The aim is for this digital platform to be used actively by you as an exhibitor to run your own campaign to promote visitor numbers. This method provides a very easy-to-use way of sending out invitations and actively encouraging trade visitors to come to the show. Exhibitors get free online exposure! The MATEXPO website has really strong dynamics as an online meeting point. It features an interactive forum where every visitor can use search terms to gather information and news about the various exhibitors. All you have to do as an exhibitor is post news items, photos and information that place you in the spotlight. Digital newsletters are then put together from the site, based on this content. To sum up, www.matexpo.com is more than ever the right digital tool for gaining extra exposure and awareness of your company’s name, products and brands. Use it to generate traffic to your stand at MATEXPO. Because top of site = top of mind.

The show must go on Demo space show / experience Every two years, Kortrijk Xpo takes on the appearance of a huge construction site of the future, the building site of tomorrow. Spread across over 135,000 m² of display space, with some 400 exhibitors presenting an extensive and innovative range of machines, equipment and technologies. Brand-new for MATEXPO 2013 are the extra efforts being made to provide the show with additional demonstration space. In addition to the display space at MATEXPO, we are arranging for a separate piece of land to be made available for conducting live demonstrations. Something that visitors can really look forward to. Something that you as an exhibitor can offer these visitors as genuine added value. Which means you’ll have the opportunity to explain your new machines and their features in practical terms – and trade professionals can see your equipment in action.
