Manchester hosts digital trade show | Print |  Email to a friend
Friday, 19 September 2008

Manchester’s position as one of the country’s leading digital regions has been underlined with the arrival of a new trade show in November.

The Interactive Marketing Show at Manchester Central will be revealing the latest online and digital marketing technology.

There will be keynote speeches from MediaEdge, BBC and The Co-Op.

Manchester hosts digital trade show
"Interactive Marketing 2008 will secure Manchester’s position as a key UK digital hub and offer an intimate and educated atmosphere for companies looking to understand the latest digital marketing technologies," said Event Director Michael O’Brien.

"Unlike many London-based shows, entry to the main venue and to all speaking events is free."

The event runs on 4 and 5 November and you can register on their website.

Interestingly we couldn’t spot any interactivity or web 2.0 on said website, not even a lowly RSS feed for updates...

Also of interest, other than the generally crappy website, is that the website does not say which company is behind the show. It is illegal not to publish the name and address of the company behind the website. 
You can find out eventually that it is Quartz Exhibitions and Publishing Ltd. 
The floor plan would never be accepted by Manchester Central as a stand is straddling a 'keep area clear' and the 'south wall' contains no means of escape.  
Rule number one of organising shows, get site floorplan approval, rule number two, plan and publicise your event at least six months ahead and preferably a year! 
Mind you has anyone seen Manchester Central's lavish but useless website? Very flashy but no SEO considerations whatsoever.
