Visitors to BTME will have the chance to win £1,000 if they complete the BTME exhibitor course by visiting 18 stands, spread throughout the Show.
Upon arrival at the exhibition, visitors to BTME will receive a scorecard that will be included within their welcome pack. Visitors can then complete this scorecard by having a conversation with representatives from each of the 18 companies on their various stands, spread throughout BTME. Anyone who visits all 18 stands will then be entered into a prize draw, to be made on the final morning of the show.
The idea was the brainchild of Ecobunker’s Richard Allen, who said: “With the new layout to BTME, we wanted to think of a way to make sure that visitors to the show would take the time to visit all the different areas of the show. We also thought it would be a good way for them to engage with the show in a fun way, with the added bonus that someone will win £1,000 at the end of it!”
BIGGA CEO Jim Croxton explained how pleased he is that exhibitors themselves are engaging so actively with the exhibition, adding to the line-up of innovative events that will be held.
Jim added: “The tremendous support that has been received for this idea just shows how passionately our exhibitors feel about making BTME the best event that it can be. There is a real sense of community that embodies the show, which is great to see. Good luck to everyone who takes part!”
