The first evening we were all cordially invited to the Cortes room for a formal meet and greet along with dinner and drinks. This was a very intimate vape event, with a select number of companies from the vaping and CBD worlds. It was nice to see like-minded people from the industry here to do business, face-to-face in the comfort of our own 5-star bedroom suites. Throughout the course of the two days, I was given the opportunity to discuss the marketing and advertising in detail with buyers without the hustle and bustle of the vape events I’m accustomed to. The format here was very similar to what you might fi nd at a speed dating event - buyers were given 20 minute slots with each exhibitor and rotated around the different rooms to meet people during the two days. Vape Shop Events in Madrid was a huge success with lots of great people, an ideal venue in which to do business and a relaxed environment without all the distractions of a traditional expo. The Vape Shop Events team all did a fantastic job and worked extremely hard to ensure that this was well-executed from start to fi nish. VM25 139
