What is a trade show? <\/span><\/h2>\n

A trade show is essentially a gathering of people from a particular industry to showcase, display, demonstrate and discuss their latest services and wares. Exhibitors hope to connect with new clients, deepen existing relationships with customers and suppliers, as well as network with influencers and members of the media in order to build up and strengthen their brand.<\/span><\/p>\n

Because the aim of a trade show is to bring people involved in, or interested in, the same industry together, the first few days of a trade show can be restricted to just industry members, before throwing open the doors later on to members of the public.<\/span><\/p>\n

Trade shows can be large or small, international or local, they can last an afternoon or a week, taking place in a village hall or a convention centre. The point is, a trade show doesn\u2019t have to be sizeable to make an impact, but boy can the big ones leave a lasting impression.<\/p>\n

The size of a trade show can be measured by either square footage of the venue or number of attendees. For example, the <\/span>CES (Consumer Electronics Show)<\/span> held in Las Vegas became so large it was too big even for Vegas. With over 160,000 visitors, that was 10,000 more visitors than Vegas could accommodate.<\/span><\/p>\n
