Why Exhibit at The Scottish Learning Festival?

Why exhibit?

Exhibitions bring buyers and sellers together and open up possibilities to allow buyers to source, test and buy brilliant services, ideas and solutions. Exhibiting at SLF provides the most effective way to do this:
  • Meet a vast array of prospective clients face-to-face over just two days
  • Generate a volume of leads that it would take your organisation months or years to accumulate with another method
  • Gain a greater understanding of your potential clients’ needs and build up a strong business relationship
  • Engage customers with hands-on demonstrations and allow them to experience your products for themselves, making them far more likely to make informed purchasing decisions

Why exhibit at SLF?

The Scottish Learning Festival is a highly prestigious event. It is the only free educational conference and exhibition available in Scotland, attracting educators from every local authority in Scotland. In 2011 the festival drew in over 4,600 visitors actively looking for school resources and access to the best choice of FREE training.

Your chance to generate leads will not be limited to the show itself; you can also enjoy coverage on the website from the time of booking up until the show closes. The website attracts potential buyers who are looking to source new products, allowing you to expand your existing customer base and gain access to a wider audience.
