“With EDGE, we’re delivering the most comprehensive exhibitor solution ever created,” said Brad Froese, VP of Marketing at Captello. “Exhibitors need a fully integrated demand generation platform that empowers them with deep analytics, automation, and engagement tools. EDGE is designed to ensure every exhibitor gets maximum return on investment for their event efforts.”
The Need for a Unified Solution
Industry research shows that 81% of trade show attendees have buying authority, yet many exhibitors struggle to capitalize on these opportunities due to fragmented event solutions. A study by the Center for Exhibition Industry Research (CEIR) found that 68% of exhibitors lack a formalized lead capture process, leading to lost revenue and missed opportunities.
“Trade shows and events are high-stakes investments,” said Ryan Schefke, CEO of Captello. “Exhibitors pour thousands—if not millions—into these experiences, yet many still lack the tools to properly track leads, secure meetings, measure engagement, and drive meaningful conversions. Captello EDGE eliminates that gap, offering a single, scalable platform that transforms event performance.”
