"FSMW was awesome, in two days of meetings, and networking with just 60 companies we made more qualified contacts
as we have done at traditional shows (i.e. expensive show booth, 1,000’s of visitors, 95% of visitors and exhibitors
not interested in each other, less civilized). Just three weeks after the event and we are already engaging with
clients on new projects."
Managing Director - X2
"Well done Ark Group, year after year this event has proven a great source of new contacts with real opportunities
in Aspectives target market, 2007 has been no exception."
Vice President - Aspective
Congratulations to Ark Group, this was a well organised event with high caliber delegates who wanted to discuss current mobility projects where device and asset management is a crucial part of the solution. This is exactly the type of audience that B2M are targeting.
Julie Purves MD, B2M
“We found the event to be well organised and the venue was excellent. We were able to meet with relevant end-users who also had value in meeting with us. Importantly the people we met all have live projects and have budget. We feel very positive about the future business that this will bring to our organisation.”
Richard Thompson, General Manager, EMEA West, Commercial, General Dynamics Itronix
APD Communications attended the FSMW event to meet up with potential customers for our integrated Mobile Data and Resource Location solutions. The Ark Group arranged excellent, high-quality meetings with top level contacts within the organisations which we had targeted. We are planning to attend next year's event as it is an excellent way to network with key contacts within our target markets in a professional environment with excellent entertainment.
Simone Lynn, APD Communications
What the 2007 delegates said:
Another well coordinated event - I particularly felt that the content of the delegate presentations was both very informative and probably more importantly, very candid. On many occasions they spoke of uninformed decisions and over set expectations that they made in their past implementations, they were happy to tell all. Their "how we would do it now" details of their presentations would have been invaluable to many of the delegates in audience. But let's not knock these guys down - They had the ambition to take the first steps on field service and mobile deployments and it's these steps that drive the industry.
