Jonathan Evitt — Chairman and founder of Tecna Display Ltd, T3 exhibition stand system designer
"The NEC is where the UK's most important trade shows happen. 18 halls, 2.4 million visitors a year, the biggest shows in almost every sector. Standing out in that environment requires a stand that works at real scale — visible at 30 metres, professional up close. T3's integrated LED and full-height graphics do both."
— Jonathan Evitt, Chairman & Founder, Tecna Display Ltd — Designer of the T3 system since 1981
