Placement of our monter Too few visitors from the swedish mining industry. Global financial crisis that arise during and before the expo Högtalar anläggningen Problems with an invitaion I sent to a client. I was informed that he could attend the trade show but not the conference but when he arrived he was told that he only had an invitation to the mingle party.

4 not enough talks of exploration success Autumn season lack of and splitted exhibition spaces Focus too much on exploration Nothing particulary We were in a good location but others had bad facilities, the exhibiting rooms were small, and unpleasent to be in Sometimes har to find coffe and refreshments between breaks The place was bad, however it was very good to be located at hotel where we stayed. No windows, the late closure at night of the trade fair. Skellefteå might be a bit far away place for this event. Bigger city, more to see. You had big problems with the microphone at the conference part! Exhibitors should not be allowed to demount their stand until the exhibition has finshed the last day. Parking places outdoor More representatives from seller of equipment than users of equipment or installations No investors exchange due to probably not enough marketing to financial intitutions who are aware of the mineral segment. It needs to lift this scenario to a European level and not only the nordic countries if this type of venue is going to have any world First day without end customer Sound time of exhibition There could be more talks on technical subjects, which i hope SRK will be able to contribute to in the future. The fact that the exhibitors hall was split in two was not ideal in my opinion the speakers and mics Väldigt strikt när man fick dricka kaffe, ta mat och vin. För mycket utrusktning och för lite prospektering. You should close at lunch the last day. good atmosphere The premises, in particular the exhibition area, was not very exciting. 9.

June 2010 sounds great Uniform exhibition area well connected to seminar halls More topics on process operational optimization, so people from existing mines would be coming, too Space for exhibiting equipment and more mingling, BBQ s etc. - An open coffee bar close to the exhibition area Other city than Skellefteå Integrate the two halls into one bigger.

14 Försöka blanda föredragen mer så prospektering/geologi för mer plats. More space for large machines 21. Other comments: Give each exhibitor something like 20 free tickets to give away to customers in order to increase the number of visitors. Exibitiors shall have place in the trade fair area, not in the hotel entrance. overall i was very impressed by the euro mine expo especially given the fact that it was the first year. keep it up. No looking forward to getting first choice on floor plan, positioning of the booth is vital. Need to think, please feel free to contact me. I have som ideas that might be of interest for you. These comments are to be kept confidential A very nice and good week in Skellefteå. I hope for 2010 there is more possibilities to have a Gia machine at the conference.
