In September 2020, AMS Live was successfully introduced as a value-added onsite-to-online platform to support market recovery. Importantly, it empowered remote participants in their endeavours to explore purchasing decisions and capture the latest market information. With this in mind, it is clear that there is still a place for supplementary online services in the trade fair industry. This objective remains the fundamental reason behind keeping the platform active despite the physical show not taking place as scheduled.
As a communication gateway for business exchange, participants can find new business partners using upgraded services like AI matchmaking, lead management and real-time analytics. Of course, these are reinforced by many of the established functions. Buyers will be able to search exhibitors’ profiles and their latest products, services and technologies in online booths, as well as connect through live chats and online meetings.
To keep market momentum up for the year ahead, AMS Live also prepares to present a range of video content. For instance, the show introduces two new programmes that focus on domestic and overseas commercial activities. Firstly, a Dialogue with the International Media on the Organiser Channel will touch upon industries’ current status and future direction in Australia, Europe and the US. Furthermore, a Dialogue with Automotive Entrepreneurs will continue on the Exhibitor Channel. Since its launch in September, viewers have credited the storytelling from industry leaders on developing their brands in the evolving market environment. Elsewhere, several influential companies are set to demonstrate their latest innovations and services through a livestream.
Participants can also access Automechanika Shanghai’s vast pool of international and domestic knowledge capital on the Fringe Programme Channel. Many speakers have taken quickly to the turnaround of format and will tune in live from various remote locations for real-time updates and discussions about industry trends. These events include:
- International Summit of Connected-Vehicle Policies and Regulations 2021
- How AIoT is Transforming Active Safety of Commercial Vehicles
- Automotive Aftermarket Summit 2021
While full services on AMS Live open from 24 to 27 November 2021, players can take a sneak peek at some of the functions now: www.ams-live.com
