Visitor Profile
NEW START SCOTLAND brings together an exciting and rewarding mix of people.
Just over half will be thinking about, or are already setting up a new business. They will need to find suppliers across a wide range of business sectors and are hungry for advice and support. This is the critical stage when they'll appoint 90% of the suppliers they will use for at least the next three years.
The remainder of our visitors already own or run a business, and are attending the show to buy products and source suppliers to move their business on to the next level.
