the concept
Why the unique concept of one to one meetings exhibition created by Weyou Group has become the undisputed benchmark for one to one meetings exhibition for both hosted buyers and exhibitors ?
1. Business meetings
between Decision-makers and business promoters qualified by our teams, and Providers in the sectors of fittings, decoration, renovation, restaurant & bar bedrooms, wellness & fitness areas, bathrooms, maintenance, cleanliness, security, intellectual products, new technologies.
These business meetings reflect the shared desire of hosted buyers and exhibitors to meet thanks to our matchmaking platform, the only one of its kind in Europe.
2. These meetings take place on the exhibitor’s stand throughout the day
and are timed precisely using the meetings agenda given to the Hosted Buyers.
Hosted Buyers can also visit the exhibition and see the exhibitors they wish between their meetings: Hotel & Restaurant Meetings is in fact an exhibition where each exhibitor has a real stand.
3. A schedule of high-level conferences
is organised at the exhibition at certain times of the day.
No meetings are scheduled or organised during the conferences.
4. Hosted buyers are completely taken care of
by the organisers: transport, accommodation and catering.
5. Networking
between exhibitors and hosted buyers takes place throughout the meetings:
- On the first evening at the welcome cocktail reception
- On the second evening, during a free evening for exhibitors to invite their customers and/or prospects to dinner or drinks
- On the last evening, a gala evening including a cocktail dinner.
The result of this concept
In the end, the concept allows hosted buyers to solve their problems and find the company or companies they need quickly, which saves them an enormous amount of time.
For exhibitors, it means they can find new customers and meet top buyers who need their products or solutions, unlike at a traditional trade show.

Testimonials from Hosted Buyers and Exhibitors who participated in our other meetings
A wealth of conference themes, synthetic and effective meetings, not forgetting good moments of conviviality, especially during the gala evening. An original way to boost information sharing and to give birth to projects.
LBC participated in the Workplace exhibition for the first time. It was a real coup de coeur! A perfect organization, many decision-makers present, quality conferences and a wonderful setting.
An efficient business platform with qualified appointments and good networking opportunities during 2 days.
Workplace Meetings allowed me to meet potential partners with a pre-qualified face-to-face approach that was both facilitative and innovative, all in an exceptional setting. I also appreciated the opportunity to exchange with my fellow decision-makers throughout the event.
An interesting format allowing for exchanges of quality and reasoned quantity.
This is my second experience with this model, to which I fully adhere. Putting me in touch with a potential supplier allows me to save precious time. Moreover, the friendly aspect and the "physical" contact allows me to better understand the person I meet. Experience to be renewed.
The Meeting format is a unique, innovative and efficient concept that is totally different from a "classic" trade show. The context of making appointments beforehand facilitated the exchange about our issues and projects. The meetings with the exhibitors were therefore very qualitative and with high added value.
