Exhibition Roundtable
Thursday March 12, 2026 10:00 - 10:45 CET The Treehouse
Moderators: Beate Ziegler, Léa Bourgeois, Tobias LienhardTrack: Enterprise
Exhibitions are one of the most complex parts of any event-balancing sales goals, exhibitor satisfaction, operational realities, and attendee experience. In this interactive roundtable, join other event professionals to talk about what’s working, what’s not, and what people actually want from exhibition management software today. The idea of this session is to ignite conversation. We’ll explore the real challenges teams face when managing exhibitors, floor plans, contracts, logistics, and reporting and discuss where technology helps (or sometimes gets in the way). Participants are encouraged to share experiences, pain points, and wish-list ideas, helping shape a more realistic picture of how exhibition management can better support modern events.
