Launched in 2021 , eight channels in the GI Channels programme enabled hybridisation of the event , where it was possible for visitors and exhibitors to participate both physically and digitally via the live broadcasting of highlights , conferences , feedback , first-hand accounts etc .
“ This afforded an additional opportunity to do business , make video appointments with manufacturers unable to make the trip and promote activity more effectively . This initiative was very successful , with 40,000 views including 21,000 connections over the entire duration of the exhibition last year . There were video meetings on the MyGi portal and a range of channels broadcast live from the exhibition on the website . With these in mind , the hybrid physical / digital operation will be repeated in Paris in 2022 ,” explained GL Events .
Global Industrie will also be highlighting a new event which will identify and reward talent in all industrial professions , the Golden Tech challenge .
