Real visitor counts are important for the industry

Visitor count has always been important for the exhibitions. But the business volume created by a high visitor traffic is much more important for the participants. With this in mind FESPA Eurasia employs a different way of estimation. Registered visitors are counted once. This means their re-entries are not included in the count. Participants and FESPA organization members are also not counted. This gives the absolute and real visitor count. Betül Binici reminded that individual visitor count was 8,232 for FESPA Eurasia 2016.
