maximise the business benefit to visitors from the event.

The EXPO REAL database of participants 
(http://www.exporeal.net/link/en/16441066) now features a number of new
specific search criteria. Here users can search the database of exhibitors
and registered participants according to sector, field of business, name/firm

according to hall number. This new function helps participants plan their
visit to EXPO REAL even more efficiently and is useful in pre-booking
meetings with customers at the fair. This online database is constantly
