Selecting an exhibit partner is a crucial decision that can significantly impact the success of your exhibit or event. Whether you're participating in a trade show, conference, or any other exhibition, here are some tips to investigate when considering an exhibit partner: 01. Experience & Reputation: Look for a partner with a proven track record with exhibit design and management. Check for references and testimonials to gauge their reputation and success. 02. Creative Capabilities: Assess their creativity and design capabilities. A visually appealing and innovative exhibit can capture attention and make a long-lasting impression. 03. Clear Communication: Choose a partner with effective communication skills. Regular updates, transparency and clear communication are vital for a successful collaboration. 04. Project Management: Evaluate their project management processes. A reliable partner should be organized, detail-oriented, considerate of your budget and meet your deadlines. 05. Customization & Flexibility: Research how flexible and customizable their solutions are. Your exhibit needs to align with your mission, values, product and brand story, and a one-size-fits-all approach might not be suitable. 06. Technology Integration: Consider a partner who engages with creative strategists as well as technology strategists to integrate right technology for your objectives. Whether it’s AR, VR, or any new trendy tech, make sure there is a purpose for the spend. #catalystexhibits #tipsandtricks #liveevents #exhibitpartner

From the beginning stages of working with clients, our team listens to the specific needs, wants, and challenges that will drive our innovative design process for each individual client. With those details in mind, we conduct thorough research and work collaboratively with the client to produce an individualized exhibit worthy of their brand. Our client, Burns & McDonnell’s booth was created with a strong emphasis on the following: - Brand story + branded architecture - Company messaging - Providing a valuable space for interaction - Varied seating - Openness within and around the space - Multiple entrances and exits - Introducing modernism with the use of sharp lines - Contemporary fixtures + clean aesthetic - Cantina/Genius bar + storage - An overall welcoming presence Centralizing on these main points, the build was a success. The booth design ultimately shared DistribuTECH 2024’s tone and energy and was a great fit for the space. Here you can see the initial concept > main approach > to the execution on the show floor. Showing this process is a powerful tool in demonstrating Catalyst’s creative build and the purpose behind the design and the designer's choices. As a result of the booth's success, we received some positive feedback from the Burns & McDonnell team. "I thought it was a nice clean booth! Seemed like lots of valuable interaction." "The open format allowed people to move in and out without feeling constrained, and the branding was evident without being overwhelming." "Loved the openness, multiple entrances & exits, and the style of the display." "Looked great! It was definitely a presence on the floor. I received positive feedback from the client I was connecting with." ______ Shoutout to Jennifer Kundert for sharing the client's inspiring feedback with us. Catalyst was honored to work with Burns & McDonnell and appreciate your team’s valuable feedback on the design and your experience on the show floor. Thank you for your partnership and working with Catalyst!
