BTME STARTS ON TUESDAY
Four halls of commercial equipment
The BIGGA organised BTME exhibition and accompanying education programme, runs from Tuesday - Thursday next week at the Harrogate International Centre.
The show combines four halls of exhibitors with additional attractions for the organisers’ greenkeeper members including Continue to Learn, the Turf Managers' Conference, GolfBIC and partner events.
Over 120 exhibitors - including the major commercial machinery players such as John Deere, Ransomes and Toro - will be putting on a diverse show, featuring everything from irrigation systems, golf buggies and machinery, through to artificial turf, workwear and wildflowers.
Jill Rodham, BIGGA's Business Development Manager, said, "BTME is the premier place to get up-to-date with all the latest developments in the turf management industry.
"There will be four halls showcasing all manner of new products, innovations and more and we're very confident it will be a hugely successful show with plenty of business done during the week."
New smartphone app
New for visitors to the show this year is a useful application that can be downloaded to smartphones.
BIGGA's CEO Jim Croxton said,"BTME is such a diverse event, featuring a comprehensive exhibition and filling four halls, along with an education conference, various special events and networking opportunities. So it is important to bring all the information in to one easy to understand application.
“The BTME app includes details of events, a calendar and information about exhibitors and sponsors."
A new feature of the app for 2017 is the introduction of a map of exhibition halls and tailored alerts, ensuring visitors don't miss out on any of the events or sessions. The app will also allow delegates to plan their own schedule and keep BTME attendees up to date with information about Continue to Learn sessions, accommodation and where to eat.
Once you have downloaded the app you don't need wi-fi to use it. You can also use the app to keep up to date if you are unable to attend the exhibition.
