Sub-Saharan Africa: Stand Designers – Bringing Fresh Innovation to the Events Industry

Every real business event or trade show has a variety of stands – be they large, small, original or boring.

Freelance journalist Lesley Stones once said in an article, “When you take part in an exhibition, the stand can be a make or break the affair.” And this rings true for many stand designers.

“A beautifully designed exhibition stand is an essential tool in face-to-face marketing scenarios such as exhibitions,” says Jennifer Gibson, owner of The Exhibitionist, a specialised exhibition-stand company. “It creates an opportunity to differentiate your brand from your competitors and brings an innovative and creative medium to marketing your brand in a 3D form.”
