Tech Orbit: Bringing the Channel Together

Creating Tech Orbit
To strengthen relationships with vendors and resellers, I conceived and launched Tech Orbit – Northamber's first company-owned technology exhibition. Bringing together all four Northamber Group businesses under one roof, the event showcased over 40 leading technology brands across AV, UC&C, Cyber Security, Infrastructure, Networking and Document Management, creating a destination event unlike anything the company had delivered before.

Building a Multi-Vendor Platform
Tech Orbit wasn't simply another trade show. It was designed as a collaborative platform where vendors, partners and customers could connect, learn and do business. I secured participation from 40 paying technology vendors, developed sponsorship packages and created a commercial model that generated more than £30,000 profit, while providing exceptional value for every exhibitor.

Driving Attendance
Attracting the right audience was critical. I developed an integrated marketing campaign spanning email, web, social media, digital advertising, printed invitations and sales engagement. The result was an audience of more than 200 of Northamber's highest-value reseller customers, creating quality conversations and new commercial opportunities across every technology division.

Delivering Industry Insight
Alongside the exhibition floor, I created a conference programme featuring keynote presentations from industry leaders and vendor specialists. The combination of education, networking and live demonstrations transformed Tech Orbit from a traditional exhibition into a valuable learning experience that kept delegates engaged throughout the day.

Extending the Event Beyond One Day
To maximise the return on investment for vendors, I managed the production of 32 individual exhibitor videos, giving every participating brand a professional promotional asset. These videos extended the life of the event long after it closed, providing valuable content for sales teams, social media and future marketing campaigns.

From Concept to Commercial Success
Every aspect of Tech Orbit—from branding and sponsorship to logistics, marketing and content—was planned and delivered under my direction. The result was a profitable flagship event that united the four Northamber Group businesses, strengthened vendor relationships, increased customer engagement and established a blueprint for future company-owned exhibitions.
