How to plan B2B outreach at Harrogate Week
-
Map exhibitors in advance. Use the exhibitor directory to shortlist suppliers that match your maintenance criteria and note those offering live demonstrations.
-
Book short meetings. Schedule 15 to 30 minute slots via the official app to compare machine specs and obtain pricing clarity.
-
Bring technical references. Having field dimensions, expected workloads and service constraints on hand makes comparisons between suppliers actionable.
-
Set measurable goals. Define the number of qualified leads you need and the key information required from each contact to move procurement forward.
Focus on concise demos and on extracting comparable technical and commercial data during each stand visit.
Practical information for attendees
Floorplans, the exhibitor directory and the BIGGA app support on-site navigation and meeting coordination. Check the Getting Here section on the event site for travel and access details to the Harrogate International Centre.
