kbb Birmingham Sales Director Jon Johnston comments; “We are looking forward to reuniting the industry for 4 days of unrivalled networking and specifying. For many of our exhibitors this will be the first opportunity they’ve had to showcase their latest products and services, following an unprecedented 2 years. kbb Birmingham offers an unbeatable opportunity for the interior design community to meet in-person with valued partners, colleagues and suppliers - we can’t wait to welcome everyone back.”
COMMITMENT TO SAFETY Informa Markets, the organisers of kbb Birmingham, have introduced Informa AllSecure, a series of best practice guidelines and industry standards for all event teams to adopt post Covid-19. As a result, there are 2 key differences that exhibitors and visitors will notice when attending kbb Birmingham: • All aisles have been widened to 4m across the show floor to allow for easier density management and physical distancing, should this be recommended by local government at the time of the show. • Physical visitor and exhibitor badges will be replaced by digital badges that can be accessed on any smart phone. All visitors will be encouraged to register online rather than registering when they arrive at the event. Kbb Birmingham Sales Director Jon Johnston continues; “Our Informa AllSecure guidelines ensure enhanced health and safety standards. Whether they are exhibitors, visitors, speakers or sponsors, we want all our customers to come to kbb Birmingham to connect, learn and do business, safely and with confidence.” The AllSecure best practice standards raise the bar on delivering safe, hygienic, productive and high-quality organised event
