Last week, the Exertis Supply Chain Services team had a great opportunity to participate in Viva Technology – a leading global industry event. Taking place annually in Paris, this event enables inspiring innovations to be shared within the industry expert network.

The main product focus this year was around mobility, healthcare and sustainability.

More than three thousand exhibitors were located in two expo halls. To navigate through the crowd, our team used the VivaTech app, which enabled us to identify the companies and products to focus on and create a targeted plan to navigate through the event.

Our team’s top tips: as the event is continuously expanding, more companies are exhibiting only on particular days instead of full event duration. To ensure that you will meet your planned agenda, plan in advance and check the companies availability in the VivaTech app. Also, to avoid a morning crowd, make sure to check out less crowded entrances or avoid rush hour at 9 am.

Despite some minor difficulties, VivaTech presented a valuable experience for our team. We are looking forward to coming back and meeting you at the event next year!
