How doe s it work?IBTM America will host 250 premier planners from the U.S. and overseas that place international and domestic business. These Hosted Buyers and exhibitors will be mutually matched based on their preferences. Exhibitors will have the opportunity to select the buyers they wish to meet with – resulting in a jam-packed schedule of up to 30 appointments over two days. Since Hosted Buyers will stay for the entire duration of the show, exhibitors will have more chances to connect, shake hands and interact in both formal and informal ways, helping to build strong business relationships. Exhibitors will reap the benefits from uninterrupted, back to back meetings ensuring maximum ROI.

IBTM America is simple, efficient and offers a hassle-free, plug & play turnkey solution allowing exhibitors to strictly focus on their business meetings, not details related to onsite logistics. One price covers all. No booth costs, no freight costs, no set-up or tear down costs, no drayage costs.

IBTM America goes beyond the average - transforming the conventional trade show into a melting pot of ideas; networking events into exclusive parties, seminars into an awe-inspiring knowledge program and booths into unique meeting spaces.
