What you need to know about meetings at IMEX

Our meetings system

Easy to use, our online meetings system saves you valuable time, helps you see who you need to, and puts you in touch with our exhibitors pre-show.

Definition of a meeting

A 30-minute meeting with an exhibitor booked by you, the buyer.

We also make appointments for groups of buyers to attend exhibitor presentations, and some exhibitors offer presentations at certain times that you can book in to. See these as your opportunity to explore new ideas and destinations.

There were 67,000 meetings booked in 2025; they are the lifeblood of our show.


Meetings for hosted buyers


Hosted buyers are in charge of their schedule at IMEX, but must commit to holding meetings with our exhibitors. We ask that you come to the show with business in hand and spend complete days on the show floor.

The easiest way to do business and get value from the show is by holding meetings. We recommend at least six to eight a day. These should be mainly one-to-one meetings, but can include some group appointments and booth presentations.
