Meeting with Clients, meeting with customers, assistance on Clients’ booth, tour of the show for discovering new entrants, innovating solutions, potential customers, valuable program, new projects…the job was not easy for our team!
In the other hand our own business development guy was looking for company with the will to invest in Surfeo services to quickly and efficiently conquer Aerospace market.
Our feedback from our team: Successful show! Around 10 new opportunities of business for our Clients, 100 new contacts met during the three days.
But, this success doesn’t come from nowhere. It is due to a very long and extensive preparation. During a full month before the show our teams worked to book appointments on the show. The goal was to know who was planning to attend to the show and who was able to meet them to follow-up ongoing projects.
It’s now time for follow-up with contacts we met at JEC. Our after-show process is now well implemented and effective to bring the best opportunities for our clients from this kind of event.
Next steps ? Space Week Paris and Aircraft Interior Expo beginning of April. Followed of course the Paris Air Show, the main event of the year for Aerospace & Defense.
Don’t miss the chance to meet us there.
