How to prepare B2B prospecting at Medwood 2026
Set precise visit goals such as sourcing surface suppliers, vetting machinery lines or identifying component manufacturers. Arrange meetings ahead with target exhibitors and prioritise +Surfaces and Tech & Software if finishes or digital workflows are a priority. Bring concise product sheets and small samples to speed up technical comparisons and use a mapped route to cover Build in and Materials early in the schedule.
Reserve time to confirm logistics and commercial terms face to face. In a show with 430 exhibitors, success in prospecting depends on strict prioritisation and capturing contacts the same day.
