Euro Trophex, the largest European trophy, awards, engraving and personalisation show, was held in Berlin for the first time on the 3rd and 4th of November last year. The show saw a record number of visitors during the two day event, including returning customers and new potential business visiting Euro Trophex for the first time. The overall feedback from the exhibitors was outstanding. The move also proved popular with the visitors, they liked the new central venue and the opportunity to visit Germany’s vibrant capital city, Berlin, during their stay. Euro Trophex saw visitors coming from as far afield as New Zealand, Russia, Australia, the USA and China. Many visitors decided to extend their time in Berlin to include a few days to explore this lively, vibrant, diverse, and cultural city. Euro Trophex is a valuable exhibition for visitors to see what is new in the industry, pick up the latest catalogues, meet prospective new suppliers and network with other visitors. In the age of the internet it is encouraging to see that trade shows such as Euro Trophex still form an important part of a company’s marketing strategy, where else can you see a wide range of potential customers, old and new, in one place under one roof over two days? As moving the show to Berlin proved to be a successful decision, and after many years of being held in Amsterdam the show will now move every two years to a new European city.
