4 New Innovations for DPW Amsterdam 2024

Written by Matthias Gutzmann | Mar 2, 2024 2:02:31 PM

We have a number of big announcements in the pipeline for DPW Amsterdam 2024. A few of them are currently confidential, but here are four new innovations and changes we’ll bring into next year’s conference that we can reveal today.

 
 
 

1.) Guided Expo Hall Tech Safaris

 

With so many technologies to explore at DPW Amsterdam and a plethora of exhibitors showcasing some of the most innovative solutions out there, we introduced Tech Safaris, the most efficient way to navigate the show and access exclusive supplier demos that'll allow you to learn about the latest software in the industry whilst not being caught up in the surroundings of the show.

Buyers embark on a guided tour throughout the exhibition hall and meet suppliers who will get an opportunity to deliver an up close and personal demonstration of their services and share key trends in their respective domain.

Tours will be hosted both Wednesday and Thursday, with limited space. The same content will be presented so our corporate attendees only need to register for one tour.

Each participating solution provider will deliver a brief description of their tech applications in their booth. Attendees will receive a complete list of the company names and booth numbers for their future reference.

2.) Video Podcast Studio For Free Use By Attendees


For the first time ever, DPW Amsterdam will provide an onsite video podcast recording studio for complimentary use by attendees, speakers, exhibitors, and podcasters, allowing them to record their own episodes onsite and provide the digital files for their use post-event. 

This new and one-of-a-kind perk will not only allow our attendees to create their own content and push it out post-event, it will also help DPW scale content capturing during the event and take advantage of our industry’s leaders being in one place at one time at DPW Amsterdam by scheduling conversations with them, to be recorded at the event.

3.) Virtual Reality Integration: Welcome To The Procurement Metaverse

At DPW Amsterdam this year, we are excited to introduce a pioneering initiative that leverages virtual reality technology to showcase the potential of the Metaverse in revolutionizing global supply chains and procurement. This initiative is aimed at demonstrating how the Metaverse will lead to enhanced efficiency, cost savings, improved collaboration, and sustainability within the sector.

Attendees will have the opportunity to engage in a 30 minute immersive virtual reality experience. This experience is designed to provide a practical exploration of the Metaverse, highlighting its application and benefits in procurement and business strategy, through 12 different use cases.

This innovative approach allows our participants to not only learn about the latest trends and technologies but also to see firsthand how these can be applied to their current and future business operations. Join us as we explore the future of Procurement in the Metaverse, a unique blend of technology and practical application that promises to be both informative and transformative.

4.) Expo Booths Touchpoint Devices To Achieve Zero Waste

For the first time, all expo booths and startup demi kiosks will be equipped with a OneKlik Touchpoint device, offering a seamless information exchange between exhibitors and conference attendees.

Our OneKlik Touchpoint device enables attendees at your booth or demo kiosk to effortlessly access your digital brochures, videos, and other resources with a simple click on their badge.

Benefits for sponsors:

•   Increased lead generation

•   Ability to showcase their forward-thinking and sustainability-focused approach

•   No expenses for printing and shipping collateral to and from the venue
