PARTNER INFORMATION

WELCOME TO KINETIC

With Kinetic just around the corner, we’re pleased to share the final exhibitor pack, your essential guide to making the most of your time at Kinetic and beyond. The feedback and conversations so far have shown just how ready, creative, and enthusiastic this year’s exhibitors are, and we can’t wait to see the energy and innovation you’ll bring.

Inside this booklet you’ll find important details, including your stand placement and all the information you’ll need for setup.

As you prepare for the event, remember to interact with everyone you meet, even if it’s just a quick hello.

The expo, conference sessions, and networking evening are all excellent opportunities to build warm relationships based on genuine conversations and trust rather than focusing solely on sales. Take the chance to connect with as many people as possible; you never know where a new introduction might lead.

Focus on showcasing your brand rather than just selling. Make sure your brand stands out and is memorable, avoid going straight into a sales pitch.

Instead, draw people in with a strong presence and engaging demonstrations. If you have a product or

service, show it in action to let people see its value first-hand. Visuals are powerful tools to naturally attract attention and help people remember you and your business.

Presentation matters, so ensure your stand looks great and that any presentations or materials are visually appealing and work flawlessly. With just 20 to 30 seconds to capture a delegate’s attention, make every moment count.

Finally, make it easy for prospects to connect with you on social media. While you’re with them, ask for their LinkedIn details or invite them to scan your QR code so you can continue the conversation online.

We’re here to support you. If you have any questions or need assistance at any point, just ask. We look forward to seeing you at Kinetic and to making this event a real success for everyone involved.

BE PART OF THE DIGITAL DELEGATE PACK Our delegate pack provides details of the event, the itinerary, floorplan and information for all attendees of the event, and a chance to showcase your brand.

PARTNER INFORMATION

STAND AND EXHIBITION SPACE INFORMATION

A shell scheme is the most common type of stand or booth that exhibitors are assigned when they book a space at an exhibition.

To put it simply, a shell scheme consists of a box style design, supported by vertical aluminium poles, held together by aluminium cross poles at the top and bottom. It comes in one metre panels and will be arranged and built by our event partner. Each one will have the name of the exhibitor on the front fascia (1) (max 32 characters).

The side panels can be printed by yourself (we will need to supply the spec) or the event partner can supply printed panels at an additional cost. Alternatively, you can simply use your existing pop up within the stand.

Please ensure that you notify the events team of anything that exceeds your space so we can ensure we provide suitable additional space.

14

SPACE ONLY

Companies choosing a space only stand must notify Vizion Events by 22nd July. This deadline is vital for fire safety, ensuring aisles remain at the correct width.

Space only exhibitors are required to provide detailed plans or images of their stand, drawn legibly to a scale of at least 1:50, including full construction details, structural information, materials to be used, and fire safety certification.

Early build access is available from 08:00 on Tuesday 2nd September; during this period (until 14:00), Construction Design & Management (CDM) regulations apply, and all personnel must wear high-visibility vests and suitable safety footwear.

Well-designed collateral doesn't just inform, it engages. It reinforces your brand, supports your campaigns, and ensures your message is seen, remembered, and trusted.

PARTNER INFORMATION

EXHIBITION SUCCESS: HOW TO MAXIMISE YOUR IMPACT Investing in exhibition space at an event offers valuable brand exposure, but it also demands significant time, effort, and budget. To ensure you get the best return, it’s essential to maximise every opportunity the event presents.

22

NEXT FEW WEEKS į Make sure you have banners and/or other promotional materials that are on-brand and eye-catching. Remember, you will be one of many exhibitors all vying for the attention of visitors, so you need to stand out. į Invest in some branded promotional give-aways such as stationery, mouse mats, coffee tumblers or bags. These create a lasting impression. Consider what you will give away to everybody, and hold back some higher value items only for people you have promising conversations with. į Consider having an interactive element on your stand, such as a game or competition as this draws people in and provides a fun icebreaker. If you decide to have a prize draw, think of a prize that is unique and worth winning. You need to give yourself plenty of time to buy or build these aspects of your stand. į In the next few weeks before the expo, promote your involvement on social media. Use the event hashtag, #kinetic with #vizionnetwork #vizion. Also search the hashtag to see who else is exhibiting and join in the conversation across all platforms. į If you have an email subscriber list, send them a note to say you are exhibiting and invite them to come and see you. į Add the expo banner to your email address so all contacts know you’re exhibiting.

AT THE EXPO į Many businesses make the mistake of arriving at the expo just in time, grabbing a coffee and sitting behind a desk for the duration of the event. We’d strongly recommend a more proactive approach! į Take a look at the list of fellow exhibitors at the event. If there are any you would like to talk to, introduce yourself before the event opens its doors. Selling to a stand isn’t great etiquette during an expo, so use the hour before the start as a networking opportunity. į At the same time, check out your competitors. What have they got on their stands? How can you compete? į Once the doors have opened, don’t sit behind a desk. Position yourself in front of your stand, so you can say hello to all visitors.

Have some icebreakers and questions ready. Offer your promotional gifts, ask people to take part in your competition or if they’d like to enter your prize draw. Engage with your exhibitor neighbours. All this activity will create a buzz around your stand that relaxes people and encourages them to chat to you. į Take business cards or contact details of people of interest and note what they said and how it was agreed that the conversation will be followed up. This is important – a pile of business cards at the end of a busy day won’t be enough to remind you of who said what and why you should be contacting them.

SAFETY & SECURITY/HEALTH & SAFETY POLICY Each exhibitor and contractor has a duty to ensure the health, safety and welfare of their employees and other persons affected by their activities. Each exhibitor and contractor must provide a safe place of work and a safe system of work at the Kinetic Event, just as they are obliged to do on their own premises. All exhibitors and contractors will comply with Health & Safety Regulations and ensure that a risk assessment has been produced in respect of their work at the exhibition.

It should be, however, we will need to be aware of anything large that exceeds your stand allocation so we can ensure that we can allocate the space, either in the aisles, or at the side of your stand.

We will also need to discuss the safety requirements for vehicles dependant on fuel type.

Unfortunately, any unauthorised vehicles will not be able to be taken into the arena.

We have a pop up stand or roller banner can we use these?

Sure, we offer the option to print the panels of your stand (shell scheme) if you wish, however, we also 30

appreciate you have existing marketing material. If you would like to organise your own print for the stand panels, please let us know so we can provide the spec. Ideally, we will require the panels before the 2nd Sept so we can set these up during the shell scheme build.

How big is my exhibition area?

Each standard area is 3x2m, however, you may have ordered a custom size, get in touch to confirm.

Do I need to book any extras, or can I get them on the day?

To be safe you should pre-book any extras you think you might need before the event. On the day we may be able to provide them, however, if they aren’t pre-booked we can’t guarantee they will be available.

Do you provide refreshments and a meal to exhibitors?

We provide both refreshments and meals to all delegates who have registered, please ensure you and your team are registered to qualify.

Can I order an attendee lead list or email blast?

No. Vizion does not sell, rent, or share contact/ lead lists of members or meeting attendees. Vizion also does not sell direct emails to our members or attendees.

We do, however, offer and encourage exhibitors and sponsors to utilise the marketing opportunities that come with your event booking or sponsorship and will work with you to maximise your time and brand awareness, long after the event.

37

PARTNER INFORMATION

SHOWCASING VEHICLES AT KINETIC: We’re delighted once again by the high level of interest in showcasing vehicles at Kinetic from both manufacturers and exhibitors. As part of our commitment to ensuring a safe and compliant environment, all exhibitors planning to showcase electric vehicles (EVs) at Kinetic must submit key details in advance. This includes the vehicle specifications, type of EV, charging method, stand number, and a nominated contact person. These measures help us uphold strict health and safety standards while supporting a seamless and secure event experience for all.

Our team will assign the final location for each vehicle and provide further instructions as needed. All vehicles must be set up and in position at the venue on 2nd September.

For safety reasons, vehicles must not enter or be moved within any exhibition building during times when the event is open to visitors. If you have any questions or require assistance, please contact the Kinetic events team.

PARTNER INFORMATION

RULES REGARDING VEHICLES Showcasing vehicles at Kinetic is an exciting opportunity, but clear rules are essential to ensure everyone’s safety and the smooth running of the event. By following these guidelines, we protect visitors, exhibitors, and staff, while maintaining full compliance with all health and safety regulations.

ELECTRIC & HYDROGEN VEHICLES Any exhibitors or organisers wishing to bring such EV’s to the TIC will be required to supply the vehicle details, type of EV, method of charging, stand number, location within building and a contact name.

The EVs must be plotted on the agreed floor plan. TIC has an obligation to inform the local fire authorities of the location of EVs within the centre when holding automotive type events.

DAY TIME CHARGING Where EVs required to be charged then this would be encouraged to be done when the building is occupied during the day. Stands/exhibitors would be responsible for monitoring the EV whilst being charged.

OVERNIGHT CHARGING The TIC will only allow the overnight charging of vehicles under the following circumstances: į The charging point should be installed by an approved electrical contractor and signed off. į Only the dedicated power supply for that stand 40

should be used for charging, this again installed by an approved electrical contractor.

į There is overnight security within the area of EV charging. į The correct level of firefighting equipment is supplied. į There must be a supplier contactable for any vehicle emergencies.

If overnight charging is to take place whilst the building is unoccupied then it must be discussed with the Organiser, Event Manager and the venue Security Manager. All costs would be charged back to the event organisers.

All the above would be subject to a risk assessment which should be available to the venue and event organisers.

HYDROGEN Hydrogen vehicles must be delivered on transporters and contain minimum fuel. There must be no charging at all of hydrogen cells on-site - this must be done at off-site hydrogen fuel stations only.

PETROL VEHICLES

All petrol-fuelled motor vehicles or other petrol engine equipment fitted with a fuel tank, including boats, plant or machinery, must comply with the following: į The fuel tanks of motor vehicles manufactured prior to 1984 must contain only sufficient fuel į To move the vehicle in and out of the hall, due to the absence of safety features which prevent leakage į Fuel tanks of motor vehicles manufactured from 1984 onwards may contain fuel į Fuel tanks on all other petrol engine equipment must be empty į The fuel tank must be sealed, wherever possible with a lockable cap į Vehicles may require a drip tray and must be positioned within the boundaries of the stand so that any protrusions, doors, tail lifts etc.. do not infringe the stand perimeter į The running of engines during the open period of an exhibition is strictly prohibited į For vehicles required to operate as part of a

moving demonstration, “pit” positions must be clearly defined and agreed with the venue.

Suitable fire extinguisher(s) must be provided į Filling or emptying of fuel tanks inside the hall is strictly prohibited at all times

VEHICLES IN PUBLIC CIRCULATION AREAS No vehicles, hand propelled or motorised, are permitted to travel within the public circulation areas during the open period of the exhibition.

The static display of vehicles in the public circulation areas is subject to approval of written details by the venue. Vehicles must be clean including tyres, supplied with a drip tray and pushed into position.

The venue will agree the maximum number of vehicles permitted in these areas.

REFUELING AND RECHARGING Vehicles and plant must be refuelled or recharged in the open air, away from the building in position agreed by the venue.

Options include high-visibility spaces at the main entrance (both inside and outside), the concourse, the reception area, and within the conference area itself.

These locations offer excellent exposure to delegates as they enter and exit the exhibition halls and during the evening event. Additionally, the main exhibition arenas allow for pop-up vehicle placements near the refreshment areas—always a prime spot to attract attention.

SOCIAL MEDIA IDEAS

BEFORE THE EVENT HOW DO YOU į Ensure that on every platform you tag Kinetic and ATTRACT CUSTOMERS use the event hash tags. #Kinetic #futurevizion. #infinitepossibilities #kinetic25 TO AN EXHIBITION į Consider creating a hash-tag specific to your company or campaign.

BEFOREHAND? Social media helps improve your exhibition visibility by generating leads and setting rescheduled meetings quickly. People who follow your company want information about your business and its services. Typically 6-8 weeks before the event, create a social media campaign consistent with your integrated marketing message, but keep it brief.

Ensure that on every platform you tag Kinetic and use the event hash-tags. #Kinetic25 #vizion. And when possible link to www.kinetic25.com

į Follow some of the other exhibitors, try to start a conversation which could then be continued at the show. į If you’re planning to launch a new product or service at the show, consider creating a teaser video which can be uploaded to and shared on YouTube and let Team Kinetic know so we can provide marketing support. į Give people an incentive to visit your stand. į Send personal stand invites to your connections on LinkedIn. į Create a landing page on your website specific to the event. į If your company is sponsoring an event at the show or one of your team is a guest speaker, promote your involvement to your followers. į If you’ve got something new to say or sell, connect with industry specific media contacts via X or LinkedIn, and ask them to meet with you during the show.

48

DURING THE SHOW…

POST-SHOW…

į Take a good quality photo of the team standing in front of your stand and share it on all social media platforms.

į Go through your leads, business cards and notes and connect with them on LinkedIn, follow them on X or like their business page on Facebook.

Drop them a personal note to make sure they remember you.

į If you meet a customer who is full of praise for your company or one of its products or services, ask if you can use their testimonial as a video or photo-article and share it on social media. į Images are a great way to give those who aren’t at the show a glimpse into the goings-on. Make sure that you remember to use ALT tags before uploading them. į If you are sponsoring the event, make sure that you take a good quality video of it to share online afterwards. į While you might be rushed off your feet during the event, always make time to share content on social media. į If at any point the stand looks busy and provides a great photo opportunity, upload it to all social media platforms making sure that you include the event hash-tags.

į Search for the event’s hash-tags on X and you’ll be presented with all of the tweets that have used it.

This will give you access to the X accounts of all those who attended or are interested in the event. į Write a blog post about participating in the event, including any orders, customer comments or interesting angles. į Follow up your leads and connections via email, ensuring that you include links to all your social media accounts. į If you participated in the conference, or made a speech, send out an electronic version of the content including any related video clips and links.

į Contests or give-aways are always a good crowdpuller. You can use social media to promote the event and attract people to your stand – to enter and to see the draw. į Include icons, web addresses, QR codes, and/ or calls-to-action to your social networks in your stand displays as appropriate.
