Commercial outcome

The exhibition becomes a measurable buyer-acquisition project with clear messages, lead ownership and a post-event closing route.

Funding-ready flagship

Do not fund a booth as a temporary asset. Build the commercial route before, during and after the event.

A connected exhibition project combining target-buyer strategy, stand messaging, sales material, lead capture, qualification, proposal and post-event follow-up.

Designed outcomeThe exhibition becomes a measurable buyer-acquisition project with clear messages, lead ownership and a post-event closing route.

The visible request

“We need a booth, catalogue and promotion materials for an upcoming fair.”

The real commercial pressure

The company is preparing visible assets without deciding who must stop, what proof they need, how leads are qualified or who owns the follow-up after the event.

Strong commercial fit

This project is designed for active companies with a real market objective.

A covered overseas market connected to a real exhibition or export-promotion objective.

Hong Kong exporters and manufacturers attending overseas fairs

Trading companies launching new categories or markets

Companies with high exhibition spend but weak follow-up

Teams that can assign owners to meetings, proposals and post-fair action

Potential BUD alignment to assess

The funding logic follows the commercial scope—not the other way around.

These categories describe possible alignment only. The applicant, target market, designated measures, cost limits, procurement and official assessment determine actual eligibility.

01

Export promotion

Exhibition participation, buyer-facing campaign assets and market-specific promotion measures.

02

Branding

Aisle message, stand story, proof system and market-facing identity application.

03

Promoting sales

QR capture, qualification, meeting records, proposal route and post-event follow-up.

Connected delivery scope

Strategy, implementation and evidence inside one project architecture.

The final quotation separates labour, third-party costs, client dependencies, acceptance points and any measures that require programme-specific confirmation.

01

Fair opportunity plan

Target buyers, meeting objectives, event message, offer focus, KPIs and follow-up responsibilities.

02

Booth message system

Aisle hook, proof hierarchy, visual system, conversation prompts and staff briefing.

03

Export sales materials

Market-specific company profile, catalogue, case proof and focused handouts.

04

Lead capture and qualification

QR route, structured contact fields, priority rules, meeting notes and consent-aware records.

05

Proposal and follow-up workflow

Lead ownership, follow-up timing, proposal templates and post-fair pipeline.

06

Evidence and performance pack

Output register, event evidence, lead/KPI structure, approvals and final implementation record.

Illustrative project economics

Illustrative HK$278,000 approved project

The illustration uses the current BUD matching ratio of up to 25% of approved project cost. It is not a forecast of approval, recognised expenditure or final reimbursement.

Example project costHK$278,000
Illustrative maximum government shareHK$69,50025% of the example cost
Illustrative enterprise cash shareHK$208,50075% before other ineligible or third-party costs

Easy BUD and General BUD have different measures, documentation and per-application ceilings. The official guide and approved budget always prevail.

Controlled implementation

Decision and evidence checkpoints before production speed.

A project may pause or reduce scope when applicant evidence, target-market rationale, cash capacity, procurement or client ownership is not ready.

01

Fair strategy

Define the target market, buyer segments, event objective, KPI and approved commercial offer.

02

Message and proof

Build the aisle hook, booth narrative, evidence hierarchy and meeting logic.

03

Assets and capture

Produce the approved visual system, sales material, QR route and lead fields.

04

Readiness test

Rehearse buyer conversations, devices, capture, ownership and post-event response.

05

Follow-up and evidence

Operate the follow-up route and preserve the evidence required for reporting.

Evidence-ready handover

The project should be easier to verify because it was built that way.

  • Approved fair strategy and target-buyer brief
  • Booth and sales-material acceptance records
  • QR and lead-capture QA
  • Meeting and follow-up workflow

  • Handle its own application, procurement, contracts and payments
  • Preserve event, invoice and participation records
