This year Experience UK in association with the Department for International Trade, are delighted to announce that we will have a large stand presence at the American Alliance of Museums Expo, taking place in San Francisco, CA 17-20 May 2020.
With over 5,000 attendees at the Museum Expo every single year, this will be the largest event for museum professionals in North America. Through the research commissioned by the Department for International Trade last year, and produced by MuseumINSIDER, we know that the USA museum market is buoyant with billions of USD worth of projects that are due to commence within the next 10 years.
AAM’s vision is a world enriched and informed by thriving museums, and to achieve this they nurture excellence in partnership with their members and allies. Through hosting the AAM expo they provide a fantastic opportunity for businesses to build alliances and partnerships within, and outside of the museum field.
At this year’s expo, there will be 8 dedicated conference hours for visiting exhibition booths, giving you the chance to connect in person with thousands of museum professionals, directors, financial officers, exhibit design professionals, curators and registrars, all whilst showcasing your new and innovative products and services. There will also be a new feature this year at Museum Expo: The Field. This will feature space for professional network meet-ups and vendor presentations on best practices, case studies, and trends to address museum professionals’ daily challenges. Research from past exhibitions shows that 75% of annual meeting attendees are involved in final purchasing decisions, and 40% of attendees are actively looking for new products or services, making this a real opportunity to develop your business and expand into a new market.
This is where we come in. We are partnering with UK companies who represent the very best of UK creative talent and innovation, who offer unparalleled products and services. Companies have the opportunity to join us at the AAM Expo, and in doing so will benefit from our, DIT, and museumINSIDER’s connections, knowledge and experience of the buoyant USA museum market.
We will enable 1-2-1 meetings in order to secure business deals or to widen your network. It is also an opportunity to raise your company’s profile through our high visibility presence at the Expo, along with gaining access to industry experts and unlocking or improving supply chains. We aim to help influence and inspire action between our members and potential partners.
With a number of companies already signed up to join us at AAM Expo 2020, and strong interest from many more, now is a crucial time join on the Experience UK stand, which will be hosted in association with The Department for International Trade.
