Architectural events and presentations

iFlex Presentations
AIS pioneered the multi-supplier presentation called an iFlex. An iFlex is an effective way to make or keep in contact with specifiers in major practices. An iFlex is like a mini trade show in the architect's own office - typically their board room. The relaxed format appeals to many busy practices where combining up to 6 or so suppliers into each event makes the best use of their time.

 

Formal Presentations
While most practices prefer a iFlex, in some practices, a more structured style of event is more to their liking. In a formal presentation, we combine up to 4 suppliers who each have the floor for 10-15 minutes - usually ample time to get your message across.

 

Continuing Professional Development (CPD)
CPD is a compulsory process for registered architects in some states. AIS can arrange formal CPD presentations in major practices. CPD presentations need to be very structured, with a focus on education rather than sales.

 

“The lunch presentations enable us to have access to a large range of architects and firms that would otherwise be largely un-accessible and I have gained at least half a dozen specifications on large projects as a direct result of the presentations completed and the associated follow-up… I continue to highly recommend AIS to colleagues at other companies as I find it a great value tool for gaining quality contacts, leads and specifications.”
Stephen Creese, Weathertex


“Our association with AIS has opened the door to many project opportunities in a very competitive market. The iFlex program is extremely good for our company as it allows us to make contact with most designers within a firm on the one day.”
Craig Thomas, The Caribou Group

The boutique trade expo

 

An Equinox boutique trade expo and cocktail event is hosted at a popular venue twice yearly in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane. Canberra, Perth, Adelaide, Hobart and Townsville also host Equinox once a year. In 2012, Equinox comes to Auckland in New Zealand.

Much more than just a product show

 

iFlex presentations are highly effective and offer much more than an opportunity to show your latest products. An iFlex helps you to maintain your company's profile within major practices and puts your reps in touch with key practice staff.
