Background of the Study:
Experiential marketing integration has emerged as a transformative approach in the tech industry, redefining how consumers interact with brands during events. At tech expos in Lagos, companies are increasingly merging traditional presentations with immersive, hands-on experiences that allow consumers to engage directly with innovative technologies. This integration involves the use of interactive displays, virtual reality simulations, and real-time demonstrations that invite active participation from attendees (Ibrahim, 2023). The experiential approach encourages consumers to move beyond passive observation, transforming them into active participants whose feedback becomes part of the event narrative. Brands leverage these interactive experiences to build stronger emotional connections and enhance product understanding. The tech expo environment, characterized by rapid technological advancements and dynamic consumer expectations, provides an ideal setting for such integration. The convergence of digital tools and physical interactions not only amplifies consumer engagement but also contributes to improved brand perception and loyalty. By offering a multi-sensory experience, companies can differentiate themselves in a competitive market and foster a community of tech enthusiasts. This study investigates how the integration of experiential marketing techniques at a tech expo in Lagos influences consumer interaction, aiming to uncover the specific strategies that yield higher engagement and participation. The findings are expected to guide marketers in designing future events that effectively combine digital innovation with tactile experiences to achieve measurable consumer interaction (Adebola, 2024).
Statement of the Problem
Despite the growing adoption of experiential marketing integration, there is limited empirical research on its impact on consumer interaction at tech expos in Lagos. Organizers struggle to quantify the effectiveness of combining digital and physical experiences, as well as to identify which interactive elements are most compelling for the target audience. This lack of clear metrics complicates strategic decision-making and resource allocation. Consequently, brands are often uncertain whether their investment in immersive technologies is translating into meaningful consumer engagement. The study seeks to fill this gap by systematically investigating how integrated experiential marketing tactics influence consumer interaction at tech expos, providing evidence-based insights for future event planning (Chukwu, 2023).
