GlobalShop 2012
Inspiration, innovation, insights
hy do you come to GlobalShop? That’s an important question, and it’s one we ask each year during post-show surveys to gauge your expectations and see how the show did in helping you meet them. In this year’s surveys, our audience indicated that the three most important objectives for coming to GlobalShop were to see new products, to keep up to date with industry trends and to find new suppliers. Other important objectives were to network, to see existing suppliers and for education and training. These all make a lot of sense—retailers, brand marketers, designers and other industry professionals come to GlobalShop to be inspired, to see innovative products and to learn new ways to improve their job performance. How are we doing on delivering value against these objectives? Fortunately, 80 percent of the survey participants rated GlobalShop as effective, very effective or extremely effective in helping our audience meet these objectives. On the one hand, that’s pretty good. On the other hand, it’s not 100 percent, so we continue to look at ways to improve the experience by adding more networking opportunities, fortifying the conference sessions and improving the show floor experience. Our exhibitors provide the products and inspiration that you come to see. They provide the “wow” factor and the innovations. GlobalShop provides the central location where industry suppliers can all gather, so you can see everything in one place. It’s up to our exhibitors to dazzle you with their expertise. If seeing all the latest and greatest your industry has to offer is important to you, please make sure to let your vendors know you expect to see them at GlobalShop and that you want them to knock your socks off. Encourage them to go all out and bring everything they have to offer. Because when they do, there’s nowhere else you can find this much inspiration, innovation or insights than at GlobalShop.
