The launch of Jill signals a strategic shift in the trade show sector, moving away from traditional exclusive B2B formats toward more inclusive, hybrid experiences. By leveraging the success of previous projects like Matter & Shape, WSN is attempting to redefine the role of trade exhibitions as cultural hubs rather than just commercial marketplaces.
