Exhibition / trade shows - North America

[Mikkelsborg]

Gentlemen,
I need some feedback and assistance. Just transferred in from Europe, I have no idea with regards to exhibitions and tradeshows in Canada and US.
Back in Europe the largest marine exhibitions are the SMM in Hamburg and Norship in Norway.
Can anyone give some pointers on the largest and most technical exhibitions in Canada and US ?
Any recommendations,

Hello Mikkel,

Welcome to Montreal and hope everything is going smoothly as you set up shop on the waterfront.

I don't know if you are aware, but the Canadian Institute of Marine Engineering hold annual conferences called MariTech. As it turns out, the next MariTech is hosted by the St Lawrence Branch and will take place in June in Montreal. I attached a brochure of the event, which may be a good place to get to know the community.

The website for the conference is http://www.cimare.org/Maritech/index.html, the website for the CIMarE is http://www.cimare.org

Cheers

Thanks Martin.... Do you have any idea on how many attending at such events ? Just to determine if to bring full product lines all together, or to go ahead with a smaller stand....

I am not sure Mikkel, I know with the conferences on the Island here, we usually have about 150-300 registered participant. I would suggest you get a hold of the conference chair and asked them, I am sure they would be more than happy to make your acquaintance and discuss further about the conference. I have a feeling this one in Montreal will be considerably bigger.
