ADX provides a great opportunity for us to reach new members from across Australia in one place. Exhibiting at ADX enables us to meet with principal decision makers [or "buyers" if you prefer] and their teams and find out how we can help them be more successful. By being present at ADX we can connect with our existing customers to simply say Hi, expose them to a new service or introduce them to our partner suppliers personally.
