topsoft showed digitization in concrete terms
This year's topsoft trade fair came to an end on August 30. The two-day event was not so much a showcase for the Swiss software industry as it was a concrete demonstration of digitization in practice.
This year's topsoft IT trade fair once again presented itself as a platform for digital business. During the two days of the trade fair, visitors gathered information from over a hundred exhibitors. Specialist presentations, special areas and theme parks rounded off the offerings. The organizers of the only Swiss IT trade fair drew an extremely positive balance.
Digitization wave has finally reached SMEs
The digitization wave has reached many companies. Current knowledge and concrete examples from practice are in demand. With its lecture stages, theme parks and special areas, the topsoft trade fair 2017 not only met this demand, but also provided the right solutions and contacts at the same time. However, the heart of the trade fair is and remains the trade exhibition, where more than 100 suppliers presented applications for the entire value chain of companies.
The visitor frequencies were very good during both days of the fair. Accordingly, the majority of exhibitors were also satisfied. Urs Amrein from the Swiss software manufacturer Opacc particularly praised the quality of the contacts. For Abacus, too, participation in the fair was a complete success, according to Marketing Manager Thomas Köberl, as the partners were able to clearly exceed their targets. David Lauchenauer, Managing Director of myfactory, had a similar opinion: "The trade fair proved to be an important source of new contacts and leads.
topsoft present all year round
Trade show manager Cyrill Schmid draws a thoroughly positive balance: "We are more than satisfied with this year's event and are pleased with the positive response from visitors and exhibitors. The mix of specialist topics, IT solutions and networking is very well received. We will therefore consistently develop our concept further, also in cooperation with SuisseEMEX and the Digital Summit for SMEs. Accordingly, we are pleased that we have already received commitments from renowned exhibitors for next year during the trade fair. As a platform for digital business, however, we are present throughout the year and thus offer users know-how and orientation in the confusion of the various offerings." The next topsoft trade fair will take place on August 28/29, 2018.
