Frequently Asked Questions


Is it possible to rotate which booths are seen first when people arrive in the Exhibition Hall?

The booths are set up in a fixed order and remain that way throughout. The default order is alphabetical however BIAV has the discretion to set a new order prior to the event commencing.

Do visitors agree for their details to be shared with exhibitors at point of registration?

Yes, as part of the registration process visitors must agree that their data will be shared with BIAV and exhibitors.

Can the avatars at the booths be changed to represent actual people from the company?

This can't be done at present however the functionality may be available in the future.

Is there an ability for visitors to automatically share the virtual boat show via their various social media mediums?

Yes, Exhibitors and Visitors can direct their friends, family and colleagues simply by sharing a link to the Registration/Enter Here tab on the Landing Page.  Alternatively, exhibitors are encouraged to list the event on their own social media pages which will then allow people to easily share with their networks.

What will we, as exhibitors, see on our screens during the show (i.e. is there some type of admin landing page)?

The exhibitors' user flow is the same as attendees; however, they will be able to see the names of all people currently visiting their booth (chats can then commence with these people).

Is it possible to get visitor reports at the end of each day so we can tinker with our marketing approach accordingly?

Detailed reports outlining the behaviour of booth visitors is emailed to exhibitors at the completion of the event, however, upon request BIAV will be able to send exhibitors progress reports on visitor behaviour at the end of each day.

Is it possible for exhibitors to update the links on their booth periodically throughout the duration of the event?

Yes, the exhibitors can do this mid event (using the same link) or request us to do that. However for the attendees to see the updated version, the attendees will have to restart the browser or clear their cache.

Can exhibitors use the chat function to show people videos? 

No, the chat functionality does not allow this.  Suggest placing videos in either or both of the links or videos section and directing visitors to view the videos in those locations.

Can multiple images be placed in 1 panel in the booths? 

No, only one image can be placed in each panel with 1 URL link assigned.
