BTC’s new advertising campaign, created by Paolo Rolando Eventi, has now been launched. It features a high-impact image of a bunch of pencils in black and white, among which one has a colour tip in BTC red, under the slogan “Make your mark”.
Direct interaction with the market and dialogue with its key players are fundamental to planning an effective and innovative show.
For this reason, in addition to its Linkedin group, BTC this year has a new Facebook page and Twitter account.
