It will be a value add and shall give you an opportunity to meet the industry leaders/influencers to get inspire and for a positive change.
There are few things which one can do before attending any such event. For instance, the official website for the entry fee, booking the space on time as a participant or as an exhibitor. Also, you may want to research the trade show that you will be attending, plan your budget and book your space much ahead of time, advertise much in advance. Know your audience and plan your trade show displays accordingly.
