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

20% of those who exhibited at the first show are returning with even bigger booths while 50% of exhibitors have more than doubled the space they will be taking at the show.

Forty new booths are set to join the line-up so far at IMEX America, many of those are new US suppliers and destinations.

Global destinations new to the show include Abu Dhabi, El Salvador, Honduras, Peru and Madrid. The technology section of the show is also set to expand with new exhibitors including etouches, Showcare Event Management and SignUp4.

The show’s hallmark hosted buyer program will also be larger this year with over 2,000 buyers expected.
