Dave

VP Sales

“We were looking for new ways to showcase our products, and a friend recommended your show. After walking the floor, I realized this is exactly the kind of opportunity we’ve been looking for. What really impressed me was the quality of the attendees—focused individuals having real conversations, not just crowds wandering by.

I also appreciate the ability to connect with local suppliers. Unlike large international shows, this regional environment fosters genuine relationship-building. That’s what makes it stand out.”

Mary

VP Product Management

“These shows are exciting ways for us to journey into new markets, while still keeping a pulse on the markets we service currently. We have done these shows since my arrival in 2017 and every year is something new. Kudos to you all for keeping to your vision and sticking to your core! We will continue to come out and be a part of these great ‘history in the making’ events!”
