Great opportunity to meet new operators who are genuinely interested in developing programmes to the Isle of Wight.

Fantastic quality of meetings, superbly well organised and well-attended by key buyers and operators.

Great organisation and high quality contacts - and spoke so much that I lost my voice! Really useful event to be part of - we'll be back.

This was my first experience at BIM and it was excellent. Very well organised on the day, a fantastic way to meet buyers and network along with being in a great location. Well done!

Well done to the ETOA team! The event was exceptional, and I was so impressed by the opportunity to have a full diary and meet so many brand-new suppliers, rather than ones I already work with. It was refreshing that every meeting felt relevant, and I wasn’t matched with businesses that didn’t suit my requirements (such as tech companies). It’s clear that you’ve taken feedback from previous years and GEM into account, delivering a truly 5-star event. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and look forward to future opportunities!

We thought the format of BIM was one of the best of the trade shows we've done. It was a lot of meetings but it's great to not have too much time inbetween and to have the chance to meet as many buyers as possible. The space was well equipped for that many people and we liked that suppliers did the wandering, it feels less "pitchy" that way from our side. My only feedback would be to provide a database/excel sheet with the buyer's contacts for those that we didn't have the chance to meet.
