We are pleased to announce that 2020 Exhibits has been awarded Gold, Silver, and Bronze wins across nine categories at the World Exhibition Stand Awards. These awards celebrate the very best in exhibit design and experience across the globe. As the second annual World Exhibition Stand Awards, this esteemed international competition receives hundreds of submissions from around the world, which they intensively review and evaluate, selecting “the very best in exhibition stand design and experience whatever show, wherever in the world, whoever the client.”
This year, the 2020 World Exhibition Stand Awards doubled in size. We are so proud to be among this esteemed group of global exhibit superstars, as the judges saw incredible architecture and activation to create compelling brand experiences in tradeshow and convention spaces. The awards celebrate the experiential, architectural, and creative innovation of nearly 100 exhibition stands at trade shows and events around the world. Team 2020 Exhibits is proud to successfully bring our clients’ brands to life through these engaging, dynamic experiences.
BEST STAND / ENERGY & MINING EVENT
Gold Award – NOV @ OTC2019
BEST USE OF TECHNOLOGY
Bronze Award – NOV @ OTC2019
As the premier global event for the development of offshore resources, the Offshore Technology Conference is a massive event that can feel highly impersonal. Industry powerhouse, NOV took a different approach, turning up the experience, with clear intention, focus, and emphasis on connection. Larger than life, NOV’s 50’ x 80’ exhibit environment was visually exciting and compelling with sharp, intentional angles and sloping walls serving as a warm invitation for clients and industry associates to step inside, visit, and stay awhile.
BEST STAND UP TO 24 SQM
Gold Award – JARS @ Housewares Show 2019
International Home and Housewares is a closed show. It is a place for personal introductions, product viewing, and buyers spending time getting to know brands. And more often than not, the exhibitors are long-standing, highly recognizable brand names and products. Such was not the case for JARS, a French company that hand makes every piece of its highly sought after glazed stoneware. The challenge was to not only capture attention but to create a compelling, enclosed space that would feel like a cozy, comfortable room. (As an added challenge, the design aims high, to accommodate the height requirements of key individuals working the booth. The taller of the two stands at 6’ 4” with his colleague a mere 1/2” shorter.)
BEST STAND AT A TECHNOLOGY EVENT
Bronze Award – Alteryx @ Tableau Conference 2018
As the Alteryx mission declares, “Our mission is to unleash the thrill inherent in solving problems, using our platform to fuel remarkable business and social outcomes.” With the Alteryx exhibit environment claiming center stage, the design is compelling, crisp, polished, and modern, with tech-savvy interaction and engagement.
BEST STAND AT A PROFESSIONAL SERVICES EVENT
Bronze Award – WM @ Waste Expo 2019
Crisp, bold graphic messaging coupled with a fresh, functional, and memorable design, are the keys to unlock an exceptional, attention-grabbing, engaging Waste Expo experience for Waste Management. Environmental performance, as seen through four key brand capabilities, are strategically featured in the environment. With each graphic image carrying its specific unique look and feel to distinguish it visually and to create a distinct experience for visitors. The challenge was to provide bold, declarative messaging with variety while allowing each one to fully showcase its benefit. Modern. Clean. Corporate. Polished.
BEST STAND AT A DEFENSE & SECURITY EVENT
Bronze Award – International SOS @ GBTA 2018
Engaging and interactive, the exhibit experience gives attendees (as either The Traveler OR as The Manager) the chance to step into true-to-life scenarios, in specific countries – including a terrorist attack in the Brussels Airport, a natural disaster – Hurricane Maria – in Puerto Rico, a mugging in Mexico City and a terrorist incident at the Berlin Christmas Market. The experiences are REAL. Real situations. Real global corporate travelers and their families. The real action, through International SOS and the International SOS Assistant App. And real results. What would you do? How would you be cared for by your company and by International SOS? Medical care. Security. Also very real. And all fair questions and concerns for this global audience.
BEST STAND 25 – 48 SQM
Bronze Award – Zesty Paws @ Global Pet Expo 2019
What’s not to love about this exceptional small trade show booth for Zesty Paws? An inspiring design from the start, this exhibit environment is light-hearted and fun with plenty of room to include products and expand the imagination! A friendly variety of cut-out props, including trees, clouds, a dog, and cat, can be interchangeably set up in the exhibit.
BEST STAND 49-100 SQM
Silver Award – 2020 Exhibits @ ExhibitorLIVE 2019
BEST STORYTELLING
Bronze Award – 2020 Exhibits @ ExhibitorLIVE 2019
A brand is a living, breathing entity. When done well, it should be firmly rooted in a robust culture, strategy, and the best environment. A trade show exhibit experience is the same. A brand must be a living, breathing, and dynamic experience. One that requires foresight, direction, and a plan for growth. Such will be the 2020 Exhibits’ experience at ExhibitorLIVE 2019. Think of our ExhibitorLIVE 2019 exhibit experience as a gathering with friends. It is a warm and inviting respite from the hectic trade show floor. Our guests and visitors will be in good company.
