“GLOBE has been a great show for us to
forge new connections and keep current
connections. It offers exposure to high-
profile clientele, potential clients, and
partners.
Compared to other trade shows where
you are mainly looking at the end
customer, here you start making
connections at the level of the specifiers,
multipliers. This show is for us not a
single-client show but a multiplier show.”
