Shecco to mount second virtual trade show

BELGIUM: Shecco is to mount a second edition of its Natural Refrigerants Virtual Trade Show for the HVACR sector. 

Following on from the success of this year’s first event, VTS 2.0 will adopt a similar format over a 24-hour period spanning February 23-24.

This expanded live event allows visitors to explore different halls and listen to live presentations scheduled throughout the entire 24-hour period. Visitors and exhibitors will be able to interact with participants through real-time chat, audio and 1on1 videos. Company delegates will be represented by personalised avatars of their actual images, making them easily recognisable to colleagues. New to the VTS 2.0, every booth will have an integrated meeting room, making it possible for exhibitors to plan their own line-up of meetings, presentations or product launches.

“By taking what worked from the first edition, incorporating feedback from our exhibitors and attendees, and adding our own improvements to the functionality and design, we’re sure to deliver the most innovative event of the year for the HVAC&R industry,” said Shecco CEO Marc Chasserot.
