  • Agenda management: Create an event agenda with a variety of sessions and speakers, ensuring every attendee finds value at your event.
  • Event reporting and analytics: No need for spreadsheets! Use dashboards and reports to monitor and analyze event performance metrics.

Ultimately, the best event management software platforms provide end-to-end trade show management for virtual, in-person, and hybrid trade shows, saving all stakeholders time and resources.

In-person trade shows and expos have several advantages over virtual trade shows. Some of the main benefits are:

Face-To-Face Interactions & Networking: In-person trade shows allow exhibitors and attendees to meet and interact in person, leading to deeper, more productive connections.

Product Demonstrations: In-person trade shows allow exhibitors to showcase their products and services in a physical space, enabling attendees to engage with them in hands-on demonstrations.

Lead Generation: In-person trade shows are an excellent way for trade show exhibitors to generate leads and drive new business, as attendees interested in a particular product or service are more likely to engage in conversations and provide contact information.

Market Research: In-person trade shows allow exhibitors to conduct market research by gathering real-time feedback and insights from attendees.

An onsite trade show offers face-to-face interaction, but it can be expensive and limited in reach, while virtual trade shows are more cost-effective but lack personal touch.

A hybrid approach combines the benefits of both, adding value for attendees.

A hybrid, onsite, and virtual trade show platform like Accelevents is ideal for hosting a hybrid event because our all-in-one solution simplifies the coordination of in-person and virtual event components.

Accelevents supports events of any type, from global trade shows, expos, and conferences to small workshops and webinars.

Corporations, non-profits, higher education providers, event agencies, and associations use our powerful event management tools to manage both in-person and virtual tradeshows.
