# Shimmr draws a crowd at Bologna Book Plus

 Apr 12, 2024, 4:44:00 PM · By **Shimmr**

# We’d heard so much about the Bologna Children’s Book Fair, and our first experience of BolognaBookPlus certainly lived up to expectations!

The organization, atmosphere and the vibrancy from exhibitors and attendees was truly energising. Thank you to everyone who attended both Nadim and Searsha’s talks - to see the level of interest in both AI and what we’re doing was thrilling. ‘Standing room only’ is now our benchmark for our speaking slots!

As ever, we met with plenty of customers and prospects, and got to share what we’ve learned building Shimmr with a host of enthusiastic new faces. Thank you to everyone who came and spoke to us. 

Until next year, ciao! 🇮🇹
