A Launchpad initiative will be a feature of the 2021 Exclusively Show, which returns to the Islington Business Design Centre from August 24-25. Launchpad will showcase a selection of innovative products from suppliers in the housewares, small electricals and gift industries, including start-ups and smaller businesses that have not been at the show before. The concept was trialled successfully at Exclusively Digital in 2020, but will make its live debut in August.
The Launchpad area has 18 stands, of which just two remain available to book. Each favourably-priced stand comes with inclusive carpet, table and chairs, lighting and electrics, and benefits from the same promotional package which is available to all exhibitors.
“One of the unique aspects of the Exclusively show is that it has always provided a level playing field for large and small brands,” comments Will Jones, chief operating officer at BHETA and chair of Exclusively. “The Launchpad initiative allows the newest and the smallest businesses to get in front of some of the industry’s most significant buyers as well as the Show’s many media visitors.”
He adds: “ Equally the Launchpad is an opportunity for buyers, journalists and influencers to find something that little bit different, which they are unlikely to have been seen before elsewhere.”
Overall, stands for the Exclusively Show are now 95% sold following a positive industry response from exhibitors and visitors with renewed confidence following the Government’s ‘roadmap’ announcements.
