B2B meetings

Due to overwhelming demand for attendance at this event, the program will now include two days of B2B meetings. The meetings will occur on Monday 18 August (day 1) and Tuesday 19 August (day 2).

Buyers will participate in both days of the B2B (to meet all the NSW & ACT products) while sellers will participate in one day of B2B to meet with all the buyers.
The day that sellers are selected to participate in the B2B (Monday 18 OR Tuesday 19 August) will be confirmed once you have registered and this is unable to be changed.
There will be numerous meeting opportunities throughout the day depending on the number of registered delegates.
The number of appointments you receive cannot be guaranteed.
Meetings will be approximately 9~10 minutes including a 1-minute changeover.
Depending on the number of registered delegates, either meeting preferencing will be required OR all buyers will meet with all sellers. This will be determined once registrations close, and further information will be advised.
If you have any questions regarding this process, please contact events@atec.net.au
