Why table top conferences are so lucrative | The Planner

Table top events proven to deliver great success in all industries looking to conduct successful business deals and meetings, while networking with industry giants.  Suppliers are guaranteed business and your company has the benefit of meeting with top quality buyers in the industry.

Table tops conferences simply consist of a table with two chairs where you set up face-to-face meetings with quality buyers.  Table tops are now considered to deliver greater value for money than traditional exhibitions, with companies spend hundreds of thousands on fancy stands, send three or four representatives to present their business,  but with bottom line margins diminishing, this can prove to be very expensive.  The table top solution presents a company with a cost effective way of being present and concentrating on conducting business, without the distractions and expense that an exhibition contains.

The table top solution guarantees face-to-face meetings as these are in most cases, pre-scheduled ahead of time maximising the conversion on the generated leads.   It allows for little time wasting when you are meeting with the cream of the crop of buyers looking only to real business, at sometimes as many as 60 quality meetings in one day.  This is a major shift from those standing at an exhibition space where it can be a hit and a miss situation as to how many visitors come to you and if they actually are coming to sit down and talk business.

IDE only conduct their b2b initiatives in the tried and tested table top format and are by invitation only.  Invitations are sent out to exclusive suppliers who meet the criteria of specific buyers and vice versa. Attendees know that they are guaranteed business meetings and their probability increases dramatically that these turn into successful business deals.

The Design Mission Africa is the next IDE initiative taking place in South Africa.  It will be taking place at the Sandton Convention Centre from the 17 to 18 November 2016.  The Design Mission Africa will focus specifically on creating a smooth pathway for the suppliers of the Real Estate and Construction industries both in the private and public sector to have pre-scheduled meetings with quality buyers.
