Cosmoprof WorldWide Bologna 2019

With "The Buyer Program" being a major attraction for international decision-makers from the Cosmetics industry, managing highly targeted and tailor-made B2B meetings was the top priority of organisers.

The major challenge was matching key buyers to appropriate sellers based on accurate preferences and qualifiers provided by the concerned parties. Apart from matchmaking, organisers also had to oversee and track these meetings to ensure a smooth flow in the event journey of the attendees, alike.

Considering the scale of the event, organising pre-set appointments for both parties required a robust event-tech solution.

Having an integrated digital platform to handle the management overhead was indispensable to cater to the needs of attendees and allow them to make the most of this flagship tradeshow.

ExpoPlatform has been a great solution to our extensive registration process needs. Their support team has been extremely helpful throughout the whole process and created great new features collaboratively. It is easy to work with because of the plug-and-play features, while still being able to keep your own brand identity. ExpoPlatform is a great platform to work with for both small and big events; a great match!

We were pleased with the ExpoPlatform team and its willingness to react quickly, solve problems and meet our ever-evolving virtual event needs. Attendee and exhibitor participation at the PGA Virtual Experience & Marketplace was strong, and we look forward to continued platform enhancements moving forward

Event Vice President, PGA Golf Exhibitions

When we needed to pivot our in-person Digital Transformation World to a virtual event, we researched over 50 solution providers and decided that ExpoPlatform was the best fit for us. We chose ExpoPlatform because it gave us the ability to create unique experience for our attendees, the backend was intuitive for our team, and we were able to seamlessly integrate our registration and marketing platforms. Our marketing team was able to use the real-time analytics and insight of our attendee’s behaviors to easily shift marketing strategies. Our sponsors also found tremendous value in the real-time data from their personal dashboards to engage and do follow ups. During live event days, the ExpoPlatform team made themselves available to support us in all capacities and quickly troubleshoot any issues that arose.

ExpoPlatform provided a seamless experience in pivoting our flagship ILTM event to the virtual space. The platform's hosted-buyer solutions and AI matchmaking abilities added a new dimension of online interactions and networking to the event, creating a richer, more connected experience for the participants. As a result, the ILTM Virtual World Tour, which was a nine days, across three weeks and three regions event, was highly praised by our exhibitors and attendees. ExpoPlatform offer flexibility and support to their clients through the whole process and we look forward to collaborating with ExpoPlatform for our upcoming projects.

Francesca Maturi

Buyers and Visitors Coordinator, Cosmoprof

We first used ExpoPlatform for our JCK Virtual event in August to bring the JCK community together virtually since it wasn’t possible to gather in person. We initially chose ExpoPlatform because of the many interaction features the platform offers it has been a really great tool to helping out attendees and exhibitors connect as well as for driving new revenue streams and we continue to work with ExpoPlatform on a number of other events, both here in the US and in Europe.

Susan Merola

Director, Marketing Technology at Reed Exhibitions

I know almost every technology provider on the market and I think that ExpoPlatform provides something unique. We wanted to deliver better networking options to our clients and with EP matchmaking and appointments we managed to increase visitor engagement before the event.

Adam Parry

Co-founder at AMP Events

Using ExpoPlatform system to manage our data was fast and easy. Finally we have a better idea of our visitor and exhibitor requests which will help us to properly prepare ArabPlast 2019. With a new website our event looks modern and attractive. Pre-show online registration helped to solve a problem of queues. Our visitors were able to contact exhibitors, schedule meetings and search for products and stands, using online floor plan.
