MATERIALS FOR YOUR VIRTUAL BOOTH AND PRE-FAIR PROMOTIONAL CAMPAIGN
To make your participation fruitful and to be sure your potential applicants find all necessary info about your institution, your virtual booth at the fair’s platform must be set up.
Many different materials can be used at your virtual booth – texts, PDFs, videos, links, photos, etc. We kindly ask you to provide them as soon as possible so they can be also used in your individual pre-fair lead-generation campaign (otherwise we’ll have to use information we can find on your official website).
To have your materials uploaded to the platform please fill in the form.
Please, provide us with all materials mentioned in the form so your virtual booth was as informative and useful as possible for the attendees. A link to your virtual booth with uploaded materials will be sent to you for your approval before the event.
