Overview

Exhibitor Categories are metadata that can be filtered in the Exhibitor views and is shown on Exhibitor Profiles.

Categories are an additional filtering option on top of the existing Exhibitor Groups & Types, allowing for filtering not found in Interests etc. These categories are often most useful where there are a small number of Exhibitors and there are different categories of interest, but where Interests are not utilised for the Event.
