The Event: Engineering Design Show 2025, CBS Arena
Active-PCB Solutions exhibited at the Engineering Design Show 2025, a key event for design engineers and electronics manufacturers. With high footfall and a strong mix of technical decision-makers, the show offered the client a valuable opportunity to strengthen brand awareness and attract new leads.
Client Objectives
Active-PCB Solutions approached Park Display with two primary goals:
- Increase brand visibility in a competitive industry environment
- Generate new leads through a professional, eye-catching presence
Client Pain Points
During early discussions, several challenges emerged that Park Display needed to address:
- Tight deadlines that left limited time for design development and approvals
- The need for clear design support, as the client required a partner to interpret their vision quickly
- Ensuring the stand would maintain brand professionalism, reflecting the high-quality reputation Active-PCB Solutions has built since 1997
- Limited ability for the client to attend or oversee the full build process, meaning they relied heavily on Park Display’s expertise and communication
These pain points required a supplier capable of moving quickly, keeping communication clear, and delivering a polished stand design without extensive back-and-forth.
How Park Display Delivered
Park Display responded with focused design support, guiding the client through a streamlined, efficient process despite the tight turnaround. By maintaining clarity, speed, and consistent communication, Park Display ensured the client’s vision was translated accurately into a professional exhibition presence.
Key aspects of the support included:
- Rapid interpretation of brand identity into the final design
- Managing decisions quickly to keep the project on track
- Providing a visually strong concept that required minimal revisions
- Offering reassurance and reliability in the absence of direct client supervision
Standout Design Features
The completed stand successfully met the brief, featuring:
- A well-lit, modern display that boosted visibility on the show floor
- A distinctive Cricut LED logo, which was particularly praised for its impact and clarity
- A clean, professional layout that aligned with the client’s engineering-focused brand
Outcomes & Feedback
The stand received positive internal feedback, with the Active-PCB Solutions team noting its professional appearance and strong overall presentation. The quality of the stand and the smooth delivery helped reinforce trust in Park Display’s ability to deliver under pressure.
Francis Taylor from Active PCB said, “It looked very professional”
Future Collaboration
