Various companies often write to exhibitors in English with an offer or a request for verification. Common e-mails are offers and\/or invoices for inclusion in (online) guides and trade fair catalogues or for booking hotel rooms. In addition, the company World Business Guide asks companies to provide their details for what appears to be free advertising placement. Stardatate CRM Leads offers a visitor database. This concerns the following companies:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Emails from the domains: tradeshowads.com and rethinks.tech<\/li>\n<li>Emails from VitalShows(.com)<\/li>\n<li>The Austrian company Construct Data (Fair Guide)<\/li>\n<li>Data Trend Analytics<\/li>\n<li>Expo Guide from Mexico with an address in France<\/li>\n<li>E-sell trade (visitor database provider)<\/li>\n<li>Avron from Slovenia<\/li>\n<li>Event Fair from Slovakia<\/li>\n<li>Fetching Lead<\/li>\n<li>International Fairs Directory\/Mulpor Company<\/li>\n<li>Integra Eco Kft. from Hungary (Budapest)<\/li>\n<li>Knoviqevents (visitor database provider)<\/li>\n<li>Targetb2bleads (visitor database provider)<\/li>\n<li>FairExpo<\/li>\n<li>Stardata CRM leads (visitor database provider)<\/li>\n<li>WIPOT (Trademark Protection)<\/li>\n<li>Expos Network (visitor database provider)<\/li>\n<li>Emails from Bizconnecthub (<em style=\"font-size: 16px; letter-spacing: -0.32px;\">fionascott.bizzconnecthub@gmail.com) (<\/em>visitor database provider)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>These are companies that\u00a0<strong>not<\/strong>\u00a0are related to E&amp;A, LabNL, WoTS and\/or FHI.
