Technology Trends For Trade Shows Happening In 2021

The trade show industry has seen an unfortunate downfall in past one year. Events being called across the industry lead to uncertainty and discerning situation. Meanwhile, virtual events grasped the drowning rate of trade shows. Big shows went virtual and managed to take place! But by the time (a few months ago), the trade show industry started responding with events confirmations and governments to re-open the industry. However, re-opening of the trade shows added quite a change- strictly to be followed by exhibitors and visitors for the public’s safety.
