The effectiveness of business events is influenced by many factors. The basis is clearly defined goals – increasing the brand awareness of exhibitors, generating leads, establishing new contacts or strengthening relationships with customers. However, they will not be implemented without a precisely defined target group. The profile of visitors should be adapted to the goals of the event. A well-polished event agent, engaging participants from start to finish, as well as high-quality speaker presentations, also play a major role. If you add the appropriate logistics organization, networking tools such as moderation, Q&A sessions or breaks for establishing business contacts, you can be sure of the success of the event.

The first edition of the Forum BHP, which took place at Ptak Warsaw Expo on September 3-5, 2024, was organized on such a basis. It was an event focused on the effectiveness of business integration and opening it to new, including international opportunities.

A large emphasis of the premiere edition of the Forum BHP was placed on international contracting. Inviting exhibitors not only from Poland, but also from around the world, resulted in increased development opportunities for individual entities.

Entrepreneurs faced the opportunity to attract investors from various markets. Each signed contract and each successful contract exchange equals building the foundations for success in the foreign trade system. The Forum BHP was therefore an opportunity not only to learn and reconnaissance of the conditions for potential development, but also to take real steps towards it.

The presence of such trusted exhibitors in the industry as Pegasus Logistics, VANDERLINE Be On The Safe Side, Fair Play Plus, Oxyline, BP Techem, Trip Tastic Consulting Limited Nigeria, iLogs healthcare GmbH, Sherlock Waste, QUBAY.AI, Nsoft Ltd and Eljunga Ltd guaranteed the acquisition of proven partners and investments in high-quality solutions.

The Forum BHP guaranteed visitors comprehensive knowledge. During the event, the Work Safety Expo, a trade fair for personal protective equipment for employees, was held in parallel. During it, visitors could familiarize themselves with innovative solutions in the field of protective equipment: helmets, glasses, gloves, footwear and protective clothing, cleaning agents, hygiene and sanitary and hygienic equipment.

The educational panel of the Forum BHP was the Warsaw Worksafe Conference. As part of this conference ”Accidents at work, occupational risk assessment and social insurance contributions”, the circumstances and causes of accidents at work, health and safety management, including behavioral safety and the obligations of entrepreneurs towards the Social Insurance Institution were discussed.

Experts from QUANTUM NEURON talked about AI in the OHS industry. The panel of “Trends and exhibitor presentations” was attended by, among others, Zofia Krajewska (“How to help our pet in a situation that threatens health and life? Pre-veterinary first aid demonstration”), Damian Mathea (“Safe work at height – new trends in safety”) and Bartosz Janiuk (“How to engage up to 85% of employees in improving the company and improving work safety with the support of technology?”).
