Visit and Poken by GES win big at Event Tech Awards

 GES’ leading event registration, engagement and intelligence technology products, Visit and Poken, both claimed silverware at the  2017 Event Technology Awards.

The awards night, in partnership with Event Tech Live, was held this year at Troxy, London. In its fifth straight year, the awards shine a light on event technology giants and start-ups that are making waves in the industry.

Visit and Poken won arguably the most coveted prize of the night with Best Exhibition Technology. The entry fought off strong competition, recognising Visit and Poken’s impressive touchpoint engagement technology at Easyfairs’ Futurizz event.

Visit also won Best Visitor Registration Technology in partnership with referral marketing platform Gleanin. The winning submission highlighted the success of visitor registration and pre-registration levels when combined with social media referral technology.

David Cunningham, commercial director, Visit by GES, hailed the wins, saying, “We are absolutely ecstatic to be walking away with two prestigious awards. This is a great testament to the combined efforts of our dedicated Visit and Poken teams, who work tirelessly to help create the most engaging and fully connected live event experiences in the world.”

Stephane Doutriaux, commercial director at Poken by GES, said, “Poken joined GES earlier this year and to win Best Exhibition Technology alongside Visit shows the great strides we have made together in such a short time.”
