Led&Led Lighting Exhibition, the only exhibition in the LED industry in Turkey is preparing to meet its visitors for the 11th time between October 1st-4th this year. Led&Led Lighting Exhibition constantly increased the number of its exhibitors and visitors as it provided the platform needed by the industry beginning from the year of 2007 when it first began to be organized by Marmara Fair Organization, and the preparations for the event continue at full speed this year. The promotional works for the 11th Led&Led Lighting Exhibition which will continue to be the only exhibition on LED technology enables both deep-rooted and new companies in the industry to take part in this prestigious exhibition and creates opportunities for the stakeholders in the industry to come together.
Having increased the number of its exhibitors and visitors every year since 7 years, Led&Led Lighting Exhibition had 42% increase in the attendance rate in 2014, which demonstrates the success of Marmara Fair Organization in this regard. For the year of 2015, however, considering the works done to this day, advertisements were given to 11 domestic publications and ‘insert’ invitations were attached to 10 industry magazines in order to reach the readers in the printing media. In addition, the exhibition’s printed bulletins are still regularly submitted on monthly basis to over 50 printed and internet publications which cover industries that are related to the Led&Led Lighting Exhibition. ‘E-mail’ work was carried out for promoting the exhibition to the members of over 30 establishments, including publications, associations, chambers, foundations or public institutions with whom agreement was made under special conditions and most of whom perform activities in the international area. We aim for making promotions for the exhibition to broader segments via the e-mails sent to the members of these institutions and thus reaching more visitors and exhibitors. Moreover, agreement was made with over 15 national and international major web sites making both industry-specific and general publication for the internet environment, and the advertisement band of Led&Led Lighting Exhibition was published on these web sites pursuant to this agreement.
In addition to the intensive works carried out in the printed and visual media, the stakeholders in the industry were personally contacted via chambers of industry and commerce and organized industrial zones. According to the information provided by Marmara Fair Organization for the 11th Led&Led Lighting Exhibition to be organized on October 1st-4th 2015, 250 Chambers of Industry and Commerce and 165 Organized Industrial Zones have been contacted so far. Correspondence and negotiations were made with over 30 organizations including domestic and overseas associations in the industry, trade associations and foundations, and these associations, chambers and foundations were asked to make announcements to their members pursuant to the agreements made as a result of these negotiations.
Promotion works are made both locally and abroad since Led&Led Lighting Exhibition draws attention from both our country and abroad in terms of exhibitors and visitors. Negotiations and correspondence were made with foreign attaches in our country and request was made for the announcement of Led&Led Lighting Exhibition to be made on web pages and bulletins under the scope of overseas works. In addition to that, negotiations were made with the attaches of our country located abroad and it was requested that the announcement for the Led&Led Lighting Exhibition is made on web pages and bulletins the same way. In this framework, dialogues were made with over 100 Turkish Trade Attaches abroad and this way it was ensured that Led&Led Lighting Exhibition news are communicated to the respective persons abroad. Another work made under the scope of overseas work was that Led&Led Lighting Exhibition stands were set up in many international overseas exhibitions as a result of ‘barter’ agreements made with these exhibitions, and the Led&Led Lighting Exhibition was promoted to both the exhibitor companies in these exhibitions and potential visitors that might be the target mass for the Led&Led Lighting Exhibition.
In addition to dense activities made during domestic and overseas promotions, Marmara Fair Organization continues its promotions on site and personally carries out the announcements and promotions for the 11th Led&Led Lighting Exhibition in the areas comprising a majority of visitors of the exhibition, where the LED industry is mainly located and respective business centers are located.
