Please order (additional) furniture by 3rd of October 2025 directly via the order form of our stand construction partner Andreas Messerli AG (if not already ordered at the time of booking).

We will be happy to prepare your badges free of charge. Please return the Excel sheet with the names of the staff present on the stand by 24th of October 2025. You can also use your company badges.
A free Wi-Fi network, suitable for simple use (consulting websites, e-mail) is available. Please note, however, that network coverage is limited and heavy use (access by many users at the same time) may result in a slow connection. Access details for free Wi-Fi will be provided on site. If you need more powerful internet access, for which free Wi-Fi is not enough, you can order private access. Prices on request.
So that we can better estimate the catering requirements and avoid food waste, we ask you to pre-order the warm vegetarian lunch menu (if desired) by 20th of October 2025 via this link.
There will be enough hot and cold food for all exhibitors, even if you spontaneously want to bring more company representatives. Cold food (sandwiches, salads, snacks) and drinks (soft drinks, coffee, tea) will be provided without pre-ordering.

Score points with a creative introduction to the visitors and give them an exciting starting point for subsequent discussions. The aim is to stand out from other exhibitors and increase the quantity and quality of visitors to your stand.
Examples of a convincing presentation:
- Emphasise USPs: What makes your company unique?
- Share corporate culture: Show values, way of working, team spirit
- Contribute personal experiences: Success stories or inspiring anecdotes
- Explain your field of activity: What your team works on and why it is exciting
What to avoid:
- Only emphasise benefits: Good salary, lots of holidays etc.
- Remain impersonal: unapproachable presentation
- Stay too abstract: Avoid empty phrases without tangible examples
