The two-day show was attended by 1,727 unique visitors.
The Summit, which was delivered alongside the exhibition, provided business end-users with insight on thelatest market trends and developments specific to key industries. A total of 162 live demo sessions, and 38 webinars led by 73 speakers, were hosted on the platform.
