Testimonials

Congratulations on another excellent event, I can’t tell you how important we see the development of conferences like this. We have saved time in terms of logistics, travel and associated costs. Not to mention the carbon savings and the contribution we make to our CSR strategy. The facilities you have for networking and “speaking” to suppliers is easy to use and allows us to gain as much if not more from these types of conference as the more costly conferences in distant locations.

Justin Segrave-Daly, Senior Sustainability Consultant, Harrison Group Environmental @ Education Now December 2009

A great event, so convenient in these busy times to be able to just come in and listen to a high profile speaker before getting back to the day job.

This event was a real opportunity for inward and property investors to ask questions of industry leaders and opinion formers in a much less threatening forum than a huge conference room.

“A breath of fresh air, this event actually delivered on its promise of genuine business opportunity. We were ‘visited’ by a high number of well qualified, genuine prospects.”
Derek Guy, General Manager, Itho Ventilation Ltd

“I thought Sustainability Now was a very good, very clever virtual event. I will be going back to read through/look at some of the items later on.”
Adrian Bishop, MCIAT

“Schüco have participated in two virtual trade shows with Building. Our participation has provided us with the opportunity of responding instantly on a one to one basis with direct queries. In addition, attendance at these shows is not restricted by the constraints of location and has proven to be very time and cost effective.”

“Our future strategy is to further utilise online marketing opportunities for corporate brand building, and were impressed with the concept for Building’s first virtual tradeshow, Sustainability Now. This exciting innovative offering, which is clearly at the forefront of online marketing (especially for the construction industry), came with simple to use technology and outstanding online support. The sales team’s passion for the product was clear, as were the environmental benefits of hosting a sustainability exhibition online.

We were extremely pleased with the results. Through editorial content created exclusively for Sustainability Now Building and BD online drove over 1500 attendees to the event over its two days. Sarnafil have over 230 visits to our booth, took part in the lively debates in the chat room … We automatically received demographic and contact details for all 230 visitors to our booth – all without the need for a costly exhibition stand, staff of the road and a temperamental swipe pens!”
Mark Harris, Sarnafil

“Finnforest were involved in both of UBM’s 2008 virtual shows; Sustainability Now and Education Now.

Supported with effective reporting and data capture allowing fast and efficient follow up the shows provide an interactive, high profile, low cost platform for discussion and presentation.”
