TSE publication shows
SPARGO, Inc. groups outperform industry standards
Trade Show Executive published its semi-annual Medical
Show Report providing a synopsis of how meetings performed in the 2nd
half of 2015. The industry as a whole hosted events that were down in both the number
of exhibiting companies and square footage. There was a “slight (-.6 %) dip in
exhibit space” and “the number of exhibitors was down a bit more sharply at
-1.9%.”
SPARGO managed exhibit sales for seven major medical
meetings in the 2nd half of 2015. All seven have been recognized in
TSNN’s 2015 Top 250 Trade Shows and six of them were also included in the TSE
Fastest Fifty. We are honored to work with this prestigious group of medical
associations: American Association for Clinical Chemistry (AACC), American
Society for Radiation Oncology (ASTRO); American Nurses Credentialing Center
(ANCC); American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA); American Society of
Nephrology (ASN); American Society of Hematology (ASH) and the American Society
of Health-System Pharmacists (ASHP).
Overall, the expositions for these events were up in both
exhibiting companies (+7%) and square footage (+7%) with a high of +16% in
square footage and +21% in exhibiting companies at the ASH Annual Meeting &
Exposition. The ANCC Magnet Conference® was up 15% in square feet and 16% in
exhibiting companies and ASA’s ANESTHESIOLOGY®, ASN’s Kidney Week, and ASHP’s
Midyear Clinical Meeting all saw double digit growth in the number of
exhibiting companies.
We were very pleased to see our clients being honored by TSE
and TSNN and congratulate them all on receiving this recognition.
