This is the first time Hoist has launched an exclusive online preview for any trade exhibition. Editor Richard Howes said: “It’s fitting that LEEA benefit from the launch of this initiative. We have already received interest from a range of exhibitors, while it is an opportunity for other firms, even those not taking an exhibition stand, to advertise alongside the preview, which will remain on the site until after the show.”
LEEA chief executive Derrick Bailes hailed last year’s exhibition and AGM as an “overall success” following increased numbers at the Holiday Inn, Harrogate. The exhibition, LEEA’s second, was “rated a success by exhibitors,” added Bailes, who aims to “grow the event further in 2007.”
