Limits and what this does not prove: The 242 directory results identify exhibitors, not attending government buyers, official delegations or individual decision-makers. The 250+ exhibitor and 14,000+ visitor figures are organiser expectations, not audited final attendance. A free-pass request remains subject to professional-document review, approval and security clearance. No complete attributable public stand, sponsorship, technical-service or partner-pack tariff has passed review. The homepage combines a “full” edition statement with an active stand-booking call to action; only a dated organiser reply can resolve actual inventory.
