Preparing B2B outreach at SFME 2026
With 85 exhibitors and a professional audience of 1,800, preparation is essential. Map exhibitors in advance and shortlist live demos that show clinical fit. Plan brief stand meetings and reserve slots for workshops where technical dialogue is more likely.
Ahead of the event, prepare a concise commercial pack with clinical cases and technical sheets. During the congress, follow a daily outreach plan: set concrete targets such as three prioritized contacts in the morning and two demo visits in the afternoon, plus one follow-up meeting to progress conversations. Have templates ready to send an offer within 24 to 48 hours after initial contact.
Professional exchange within the congress
Sessions and exhibition areas facilitate technical exchanges between specialists and industry representatives. With 130 speakers on the roster, selecting talks aligned with your niche clinical interests maximizes the value of the time spent on site and increases the chance of meaningful business conversations.
