MTE has made it easy for exhibitors to identify mine visitors during the shows with the help of the MTE designation identifier. This system categorises the different mining departments into different colour codes so exhibitors can easily identify their target audience.

Use MTE’s designation identifier to narrow down your targeted clients. © Mining and Technical Exhibitions
