Vision Events

What is Vision Events®?
Vision Events, a division of Everything Channel, is the leader in presenting focused business events for technology Vendors and Decision-Makers. Vision Events highly strategic programs represent a proven alternative to the noisy, haphazard format of standard industry events. The concept is simple, but the difference is profound: Recruit and deliver the leading Executives for face-to-face interaction with the industry's top and emerging vendor technology companies.

What are Guaranteed Private Boardroom Appointments?
Private Boardroom Appointments are prescheduled appointments that match Vendors with a guaranteed group of Senior Level Decision-Makers whose product interests are strategically aligned with Vendor markets. During each uninterrupted appointment, interactive dialogue allows Vendors and Attendees the ability to build valuable partnerships and to strengthen existing relationships.

How are boardroom groups selected?
Boardroom groups are selected through a well-developed matching system, pairing Vendors with a guaranteed audience of executive Decision-Makers. Due to the complexity of the boardroom scheduling process, Vision Events is unable to accommodate requests by Vendors or Attendees to present to, or to be included in, a specific boardroom group. However, time is available to meet one-on-one throughout the Event.

Why should Vendors attend Vision Events versus seeing their channel partners or targeted customers one by one at their locations?
Vision Events provides a cost-effective, proven format for establishing multiple channel partnerships or qualified leads in only a few days by bringing key Decision-Makers together in one location. Vision Events delivers maximum results with minimal travel costs. And participation is "by invitation only," so Vision Events gives you direct access to the leaders and innovators in your channel or market, making it the best return on your investment of time and money.

How much does an Event cost?
Resellers attend Vision Events "by invitation only," ensuring Vendors an exclusive audience of Senior Level Decision-Makers. Invited Attendees receive a Participation Package; for details, call 603-471-4200. Vendor pricing levels for each Vision Event depend on a number of factors, including the number of boardroom appointments purchased and the number of employees who will be attending. Contact your Account Executive at 603-471-4200 and we will help you put together an Event package that meets your goals.

What is the advantage to participants?
As a division of Everything Channel, Vision Events is backed by one of the world's foremost technology thought leaders. Some Events feature on-site classroom-style sessions featuring many of our best analysts, which means that more innovative content, analysis, and research are woven into the fabric of Vision Events' programs. Furthermore, at many Events, Vendors and Executives get exclusive one-on-one access to our analysts to discuss both industry trends and their own specific strategic opportunities.

What are the advantages of the Vision Events model over traditional trade shows?
There are several key advantages. In the standard trade show model, the prospective audience is mass marketed to, and the quantity and quality of the audience that shows up is always an unknown variable. Vision Events pre-selects, invites and delivers in the highest level Decision-Makers to the Event. At standard trade shows, floor traffic is a hit-or-miss proposition; even if the right buyers are at the show, there is no guarantee that they'll stop by your booth. At Vision Events, we give you the tools and the format to meet with specific decision makers in one-on-ones, present to a select and pre-qualified group in private boardrooms, and interact in a series of networking events. The face time you spend with key customers and prospects is highly structured. Your ROI is maximized. Every aspect of every event is carefully planned to ensure Vendor satisfaction and success, at a level of customization and personalized service no standard trade show can match.
