Best In Social Media Expo Of The Year
The overall Best in Social Media Expo of the Year title was awarded to the Rand Show, which demonstrated consistent performance across multiple social media engagement indicators.
According to Gerrit Davids, Lead Advisor at TaranisCo Advisory, the organisation that compiled the ExpoX Awards, the Rand Show’s performance reflects a well-rounded digital presence.
“Due to its consistent performance across multiple engagement indicators, the Rand Show leads in audience appreciation and emotional reactions while also maintaining the largest and most engaged online community, demonstrating a well-balanced social media presence compared with other expos,” says Davids.
The awards aim to provide data-driven insights into audience engagement trends within the exhibition industry, helping organisers understand how digital interaction and community engagement contribute to brand strength and event visibility.
