Becoming an Exhibitor
Be a Part of Business Startup
Now in its sixth year, Business Startup is firmly established in the business calendar as the leading UK exhibition for pre-start and early-stage ventures. Our exhibitors - both public sector and private enterprise - come back time after time as they recognise the value to their business of taking space at the show.
If your business offers products or services to new and growing businesses, you should seriously consider having a presence at Business Startup. With 20,000 entrepreneurs expected at the April ExCel show, and with some of the biggest names in British business already booked to exhibit, you will be in great company.
The benefits of taking a stand are huge. At the show you have the opportunity to meet, and present your company to, literally thousands of entrepreneurs. Before the show your business is featured on this website and in our stunning 52-page showguide, and your company's reputation reaps the rewards of association with Business Startup.
