Yes! We require that you upload pre-recorded demos and/or seminars. The required format for videos is MP4 with a maximum file size 2GB and 1080p is preferred. The Q&A portion of your demo and seminar will take place live and will be conducted via chat.
All sponsor showcase content must be uploaded by February 17. Please note that attendees will have access to view your showroom as soon as they register, thus it is suggested you upload your content and build out your showroom as soon as possible. Product demo information (title, description, etc) is due February 17th as well. Product demo videos and seminar videos are due by March 15.
Up to 250 attendees can join your demo or seminar session.
Yes! Sponsors will receive lead data for any attendee that attends your product demo or seminar. These will be sent by MHI after the show.
Attendees can opt-in for AI-Matchmaking to sponsors via their profile interests. Sponsors and attendees can arrange mutually beneficial video meetings based on that matchmaking. However, those who opt-out of matchmaking can drop virtual business cards which will allow attendees to connect with a product expert or sales representative from a sponsor company on an on-demand basis. Virtual business cards will include first and last name, email address, title, company.
Attendees can chat with sponsors on their Sponsor Showcase open chat or reach connect and chat one-on-one via Grip. Attendees can also reach out to sponsors to schedule more in-depth video meetings with their team and sponsor representatives via Grip. Sponsor personnel should monitor the Showcase chat during show hours. Each sponsor representative can set their calendars within Grip so that they only receive meeting invitations during the times they are available.
Yes! Sponsors can request virtual meetings with attendees. Attendees can then accept or decline the invitation. Sponsors can also request to "connect" with attendees. If the attendee accepts, the sponsor can then do live 1:1 chats with the attendee.
No, pending meeting invitations are on a per sponsor representative basis. See example below. Each sponsor representative participating in ProMatDX must use a unique email address.
Example: A sponsor purchases the Value Package which includes 5 sponsor representatives and each rep is limited to 10 pending meeting invitations but the sponsor only has 3 staff members (sponsor reps). The sponsor would NOT be able to reallocate 50 pending meeting invitations across their 3 sponsor representatives. If they only had 3 of the eligible 5 sponsor representatives participate, their 3 sponsor reps would still only be able to have 10 pending meeting invitations at a time.
No, only sponsor contacts who are activated for a sponsor will be able to engage in the 1:1 live chat with attendees.
Sponsors get leads any time an attendee:
Sponsor Showcase leads are available on the Sponsor Showcase Dashboard. Connections made within Grip can be downloaded from the Grip platform. Leads from your demos and sessions will be sent to sponsors after the show.
No, MHI does not provide access to the list of registered attendees from ProMatDX until after the portal has closed. Sponsors interested in access of a direct mail list from a previous MHI Trade Show can request more information by visiting http://exhibit.mhi.org/attendees.
Registration for sponsors will open towards the end of February.
Sponsors are limited to the number of reps included in their package. Sponsors will need to use one of the reps in their allotment for the administrative role. If this individual does not wish to have virtual meetings with attendees, they can block off their calendar within Grip.
