About Us and the Trade Show Industry
According to the Center for Exhibition Industry Research (CEIR), the majority of professionals attend trade shows to look for new products, get insights on industry trends and enjoy the unique capability of face-to-face connection with suppliers and colleagues that only exhibitions can provide. Exhibitors primarily participate to generate leads, enhance branding and nurture and upsell relationships with current customers.
In essence: B2B NETWORKING.
ACOB is just that, a data-centric event matchmaking company focused on pairing the most qualified attendees with solutions-oriented exhibitors to aid in networking and accelerating business at trade shows through our suite of homegrown solutions that ranges from data preparation and data mining to marketing strategy and smart appointment-setting tools.
