What it gets you

What an event does for you.

At De Bouwtop and De Infratop, your audience walks past your stand. In one day, you have conversations that would otherwise take months of calling. The event is announced in the trade magazine and newsletter, followed by a report and an aftermovie. Meet the Architect is a small-scale morning session with architects who specify your material, on scheduled dates through the year.

  1. Found.

    When your customer searches, in Google or with an AI assistant.

    Report, interview and aftermovie appear on the platform. This way, your participation remains discoverable in Google and can reappear in AI responses long after the day itself.

  2. Known.

    By those who decide in your sector.

    Announcement beforehand in the trade magazine and the newsletter, the event itself, and report and aftermovie afterwards: three times with the same audience.

  3. Chosen.

    Because they already saw and heard you.

    Who read your article and saw your video, suddenly stands opposite you at the event. That is the moment when a name becomes a supplier.

How it works

How an event partnership works.

  1. Briefing and package choice

    You tell us who you want to speak to and what you want to show. We advise the event and the partner form that suits it.

  2. Preparation and event day

    We schedule your speaking slot or session, the stand layout and the announcements in trade magazine and newsletter. On the event day your team is on location, our organisation is present on the floor and we make the recordings for photo, video and podcast.

  3. Follow-up and reporting

    You receive the report, the aftermovie and the photos, plus an evaluation and the visitor data to the extent that participants gave consent.

Discoverable online for the long term

What appears, remains discoverable.

Good to know

Frequently asked questions.

Is your question not listed? Call us or ask it via the contact form.

Who attends De Bouwtop and De Infratop?

Decision-makers from the construction and infrastructure sector: clients, contractors, architects and engineers, project managers and suppliers, mainly from Belgium and the Netherlands. Besides the programme, they come for networking during breaks and afterwards.

What is the difference between main partner and knowledge partner?

A main partner is linked to the entire event and is visible in all communication, on stage and at the location. A knowledge partner has their own session or speaking slot and is presented with content.

How early should I join?

As early as possible, because the main partner position and speaking slots are limited and because you then participate in all announcements in trade magazine and newsletter. It is precisely this communication beforehand that brings visitors to your stand or session. For Meet the Architect you can join per session.

Can I sponsor just one session of Meet the Architect?

Yes, you can be a partner of one session or a series. Meet the Architect meets six times a year in Oostkamp, on scheduled Wednesday mornings. Small-scale and focused on content, so you talk directly with specifiers in a single morning.

Take the stage at De Bouwtop or De Infratop.
