GIE+EXPO offers new mobile app
Green Industry & Equipment Expo (GIE+EXPO) attendees now have access at their fingertips to all things pertaining to the 2015 show through the new Go EXPO free smartphone app. The Go EXPO mobile app is available now in the iTunes and Google Play stores. Attendees who download and log in will be entered for a chance to win the $5,000 giveaway.
The mobile app, sponsored by Gravely, provides easy access to event schedules, the floor plan, exhibitor information, show announcements and social media posts. Attendees and mobile app users can use Go EXPO’s Personalized Planner to build a custom itinerary of preferred sessions and take notes using the My Notes feature. When not attending educational sessions, mobile app users can also use the Planner to select exhibitors that they want to meet on the show floor, request appointments, and use the interactive floor plan to easily navigate to their booth locations.
The new Go EXPO app also allows users to do the following:
* Search for exhibitors, view their product information, tag favorites, request meetings, add notes and map booth locations.
* Locate favorite booths on the interactive floor plan and download your personalized walking map.
* Search the conference schedule, rate sessions, add notes and email them, as well as view handouts.
* Build a personalized planner — plan a custom itinerary, add notes, and tag favorite exhibitors and sessions.
* Read, follow, and comment on tweets and Facebook posts from fellow attendees and exhibiting companies.
* Tune into exclusive updates, notifications and blogs from show management.
