Nickie West, FIT Show Event Director, Speaks
Nickie West, FIT Show Event Director, expressed, “Whilst nothing beats visiting FIT Show in the flesh, our unparalleled virtual experience is the next best thing. FIT Show 360 offers a digital twin of our exhibition halls from the NEC this May. As an event organizer, we are constantly looking at ways to enhance the live experience for exhibitors and visitors, working with EXPO 360 to launch FIT Show 360 has allowed us to do just that.”

The Visionaries Behind EXPO360
EXPO360, the brains behind FIT Show 360’s launch pilot, is led by former BBC, SKY, and ITV program maker, Alan Tisch. His visit to FIT Show in 2018 inspired the creation of a virtual replica of the event, designed to extend the value of the three-day exhibition.
Speaking about the launch, Alan Tisch commented: “With many clients in the fenestration industry, my first experience of large-scale exhibitions came when I attended FIT Show in 2018. I was blown away by the huge scale of the event and size of the stands, but also realized what a huge investment exhibitions are in both time and money.”
“I saw an opportunity for a real-world digital twin of the event to allow people to freely walk around from any device anywhere in the world. EXPO360 has been designed to increase the shelf life of exhibitions, as well as creating an opportunity for those who missed an event to go back and explore it in the virtual world.”
