The shows in ExpoDFW’s Event Series are open exclusively to members of the event focus industry. This industry-specific policy ensures maximum attendee relevance. Our goal is to save you valuable time so you don’t waste it sorting through heaps of business cards from people who do not represent buyers.

BENEFITS OF OUR ATTENDANCE POLICY:
• We qualify attendees at the door to save you time and effort.
• Get through the qualifying process quickly and efficiently.
• Shorten your closing times.
• Increase the number of lead conversions from the show.

We promise to protect your investment. The shows in ExpoDFW’s Event Series are not for everyone. There are many companies that support the industry but serve no purpose within our expo. We screen all attendees to maximize your time, because it’s precious and you paid a lot of money to get here and display your products and services!
