IMEX America preparing up for a bigger October 2012 show


A strong debut from IMEX America last year has resulted in significant increases from exhibitors and buyers for the award-winning trade show this coming 9 – 11 October at the Sands Expo in Las Vegas.

Of contracts so far received, 20% of those who exhibited at the first show are returning with even bigger booths. Of these, 50% of exhibitors have more than doubled the space they will be taking at the show.

In addition, and another sign that the show has captured both the imagination and the business appetite of the international meetings, incentive travel and events market, almost 40 new booths are set to join the line-up so far at IMEX America, with more expected in the next two months. Of the 40 to-date many are new US suppliers and destinations, while the space increases have been seen from right across the world. Hotel groups have also responded strongly meaning that the hotel section of the trade show floor will also be noticeably bigger and more varied this fall.

IMEX Group Chairman, Ray Bloom, declared that the show’s hallmark hosted buyer program will also be larger this year with well over 2,000 buyers expected.

Bloom commented: “We were delighted with the positive response we received after last year’s debut IMEX America; it was clear the show produced the business results both exhibitors and buyers were looking for. It is gratifying to see that feedback now being converted into increased participation on both sides, which bodes well for an even stronger IMEX America this October... and we’ve still got three months to go.
