Here’s how to stand out at IMTS 2022
Success at IMTS 2022 depends on you and your exhibit team’s ability to catch the eye of everyone browsing the one-day-only tradeshow. Here are the two booth sizes available at the show, and their specific advantages:
10 x 10 Exhibit Rentals
10 x 10 Exhibit Rentals are ideal for exhibitors who want to highlight or promote a single product or service. You have room for product display cases, 3D graphic wall, custom light display and flooring, and one seating configuration.
10 x 20 Exhibit Rentals
10 x 20 Exhibit Rentals are a good solution for those showing multiple products and services. You have 20 feet of graphic back wall, multiple seating configurations for demonstrations and lighting education, in addition to custom light and flooring that come standard with our exhibit rentals.
You’ll need to have at least a 10 x 10 booth presence at IMTS. If you have a larger interest than mere presence at IMTS, Exhibit Experience can help. Our dynamic LED walls with video reels, private projection rooms for closing, overhead projections, new underlit flooring, and much more will catch the eye of those buyers and draw them into your booth.
