The next edition of IMEX America — taking place Oct. 15-17 in Las Vegas — will feature a “significantly expanded” show floor, the IMEX Group announced last week. To date, it says, more than 70 returning exhibitors have expanded their booths and more than 30 new exhibitors have signed contracts.
Among the new exhibitors who have recently confirmed are:
• Baskow & Associates;
• Charleston CVB;
• Daytona Beach;
• Detroit CVB;
• Effective Registration Inc.;
• Exclusive South America; and
• Fudale.
Technology companies Double Dutch and Attendify also will be first-time exhibitors at the show, which organizers says is indicative of rising demand from meetings and events technology suppliers.
“The demand for the next show is looking very strong and we are pleased to announce further growth in the number and scope of exhibitors for buyers to do business with,” IMEX Group Chairman Ray Bloom said in a statement. “We’ve seen a marked rise in demand from new exhibitors and also significant requests for booth increases over the summer. This momentum makes the run-up to the next IMEX America in Las Vegas this October very exciting.”
