Compared with previous editions, the number of exhibitors was very low: 29, including only 6 manufacturers. Nonetheless, it was a fine show, very well organized and supportive of its exhibitors, with significant spin-offs.
The first day (Monday February 25) was press day, with 2,000 journalists from all over the world in attendance. We were able to take part in numerous interviews throughout the day. Most of the journalists had prepared their visit and were already familiar with our Beeway. The day generated extensive media coverage.
The second day was dedicated to VIPs.
LMI invited its investors to touch the vehicle and meet the team. They were delighted to see the reality of the product to which they had committed themselves, and the motivation of the teams.
Beyond the financial stakes, thank you for your confidence in our project and your support for this wonderful human adventure.
The following days were more of the same: 168,000 visitors according to the organizers. Our Beeway, adorned with a transparent front end, aroused curiosity as it allowed visitors to discover its innards. The interior was extensively tested, and many children enjoyed "driving" the truck (which also allowed them to test the doors!).
As a result, we returned with a large collection of contacts from over 10 countries, users, distributors, the media... The show was a great success, confirming Beeway's approach to designing this vehicle.
