Less than a month until the event, Most exhibitors already have their stands designed and their technological demos ready.. However, in a sea of ​​screens, Artificial Intelligence and virtual realities, a critical question arises: How do you get a visitor to stop and, the most important thing, stay?

This is where we come in, and where our proposal perfectly complements your technological investment.

The contrast “High-Tech” vs. “High-Touch”

In this edition of 2026, where AI floods everything, the human factor has become the true luxury. We have noticed a growing trend among our clients in the sector tech: seek to create a oasis sensorial in the midst of digital noise.

Having a professional ham cutter at your stand is not just about offering food; is to offer a live experience that no screen can replicate. Knife cutting provides:

  • Artisanal visuality: The slow and precise movement of the cutter contrasts with the frenetic speed of the fair, attracting curious glances naturally.
  • Aroma and Flavor: Two senses that mobile technology cannot yet conquer.

He “Dwell Time” (Dwell time)

In trade fair marketing, he dwell time it's gold. A plate of freshly cut ham is not eaten standing up and in a hurry; invites you to take a break, to the glass of wine and the conversation.

Our experience at previous fairs tells us that the presence of a cutter increases the retention time of leads and el stand. While the visitor enjoys the tapa, your sales team has those 3-5 invaluable minutes to make your pitch without pressing, in a relaxed and hospitable atmosphere.
