What's included

The panel of judges will assess each entry application based on parameters such as technical advancement and audience interest. If accepted, each entrant will receive a free exhibitor place in the IDTechEx Launchpad zone. The 4 sqm exhibit space will include a counter, 2 chairs, 1 electric point, wifi, exhibitor nameboard and two passes to the conference and exhibition and promotion as an IDTechEx Launchpad exhibitor. A CXO or suitably knowledgeable person of the organisation must be present at the area to demonstrate the technology during the exhibition hours. Successful applicants will need to cover their own travel and lodging cost in addition to any costs of the products shown including signage.

Helping launch new business

Why are we doing this? IDTechEx recognise that it can be difficult for very small companies or research organisations to show their big advances in the traditional manner of exhibiting where no budget may be assigned. The IDTechEx Launchpad will give such entities the ability to reach the international audience, and for the community to see the state-of-the-art systems.
