News: The Expo People are export experts

By

The Expo People, a new global events business has launched to support companies new to exporting overseas realise their potential without requiring additional permanent resource.

With backing from Rotherham Youth Enterprise, the new company is based in RiDO's Moorgate Crofts business centre in Rotherham and has been set up by international event specialist, Paul Tomes who has worked with events organizers around the world to promote events from Morocco to Abu Dhabi and across Europe.

Previously international co-ordinator at healthcare consultancy, Medilink, Paul has planned, developed and executed exhibition projects around the world, with a focus on Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Latin America and believes successful export doesn't need to cost the earth if planned properly.

Paul Tomes, business development director at The Expo People, said: "Attending an international exhibition or trade show for lots of companies is the first step to trading globally. It's quite an expensive and often daunting prospect and the notion of doing business overseas can be frightening and time consuming for a small business.

"Having worked with lots of small to medium sized businesses in the UK and overseas I absolutely believe exhibiting internationally is the key to business success and I'm looking forward to helping more companies realise their global potential and reap the rewards from going global."

Witnessing the benefits for healthcare companies daring to export, Paul now wants to help more companies across sectors benefit and make sure they are making the most of their budget. The Expo People work with organisations on their sales or exhibition strategy to make sure they stand out at trade fairs and exhibitions whilst also being as cost-efficient and resource-efficient as possible.

Paul added: "We are currently working with several overseas organisers to encourage UK companies to display their products overseas and are able to offer support for stand build, travel and accommodation, freight restrictions and other related tasks involved in attending a successful exhibition."
