How to approach B2B prospecting at Fit Show 2027
Prioritize meetings with a shortlist of target companies and aim for a measurable number of qualified contacts per day. For exhibitors, block demo slots in the Demo Zone to showcase installation performance. For buyers, map the CPD sessions most relevant to specification needs and use demo comparisons to shortlist suppliers. Prepare concise technical sheets and a digital follow up pack to send after each meaningful interaction.
Logistics and practical tips
The NEC supports stand logistics and vehicle access for build up and breakdown. Request the floorplan early and plan deliveries to avoid peak slots. Use Wednesday evening hours for extended meetings or technical walkthroughs. Have procurement criteria and budget ranges ready to accelerate quotes and lead generation.
