GSE Expo Europe 2026 has officially wrapped, and the Mercury GSE team is home from Lisbon with plenty of new connections and a lot to follow up on.

Our week started the night before the show opened, with dinner among colleagues and friends at Sud Lisboa on the Tagus River. Conferences are about meetings and opportunities, but they're also a rare chance to catch up in person with people we may only see a few times a year. It was a good way to begin.

When the doors opened at FIL on September 15, months of preparation came together. The show floor filled with familiar faces and new ones, and our stand stayed busy through all three days. We brought the giveaways to add some fun and joy to people who stopped by - along with our popular pens, decals and travel tags, we handed out small bottles of Port and mini fans for the Lisbon heat. Some of our LIS stickers even went home on an attendees' suitcase!

Thank you to everyone who visited the Mercury GSE stand, and to the customers, partners and industry colleagues we connected with throughout the week. The show is over, but the conversation doesn't have to end. Stay in touch with your Mercury GSE Business Development representative, or contact us at rentals@mercurygse.com for rental, leasing or equipment inquiries.
