Even in the current tumultuous times in several
countries worldwide, the overall worldwide exhibition
industry expects continued growth in turnover for the
coming year, according to the recently released 17th
Global Exhibition Barometer. However, a significant
level of uncertainty is forecast for the first half of 2017in Asia, Middle East and Africa. In addition, with the
heightened level of random violent incidents, 60
percent of companies surveyed said they have
introduced additional security measures at their events
in the past months.
In North America, the outlook is very positive: morethan 8 companies out of 10 expect an increase in
turnover for 2016 and the first half of 2017, and more
than 50% of those polled declare an increase of more
than 10 percent in annual profits for 2015 and 2016.
Likewise, the U.K. - at the time of the survey, before
the EU referendum - was expecting to perform in apositive way similar to North America and good
perspectives also appeared in several other European
Despite global uncertainty, UFI Report indicates trade show industry thriving
markets. In Germany, however, less than half of the
survey participants anticipate a growth for the first half of
2017 compared with a cyclically strong 2016. In Turkey,
which also was surveyed before the recent coup attempt,
significantly fewer companies report growing profits thanin earlier UFI barometer surveys. The situation in Russia
remains flat. In Central and South America, a majority of
companies anticipate turnover decreases in 2016, but are
more confident for the first half of 2017. Profits there also
are expected to rise, with the notable exception of Brazil.
In Asia, as well as in the Middle East and Africa, 30-50%of survey participants on average declare an increase of
more than 10% in annual profits for 2015 and 2016. The
level is lower in China, where 20-30% of participants
report such increases in annual profits. Twenty percent to
40% of those polled in Asia/Pacific, the Middle East or
Africa report uncertainty regarding their turnover for thefirst half of 2017. The complete results of the Exhibition

CEIR Releases two new reports in ‘2016Changing Environment of Exhibitions Study’
The Center for Exhibition Industry Research (CEIR) has released twomore reports from its newest series, 2016 Changing Environment ofExhibitions. This study consists of 10 fact sheets articulating thepower of exhibitions from the perspective of exhibitors, including itsmost recent: Exhibitions Valued for Marketing to Hard-to-ReachIndustry Sectors and Professionals and Factors that Drive theDecision to Exhibit. “The next two fact sheets continue to tell thestory of the power of face-to-face marketing at exhibitions,” saidCEIR President and CEO, Mr. Brian Casey, CEM.
‘Exhibitions Valued for Marketing toHard-to-Reach Industry Sectors andProfessionals’ shows that roughlyhalf of exhibiting companies facethe major task of extensivemarketing efforts to reach theirtarget industry sectors orprofessionals. This report alsoreveals that companies with thesechallenges find business-to-businessexhibitions highly valuable in helpingthem market to these audiences.‘Factors that Drive the Decision to
Exhibit’ reveals exhibitors are savvy and discriminating. Theyscrutinize different factors when determining whether to exhibit /expand participation or reduce/leave an event. Study findingssuggest factors considered are essentially the same for eitherdecision. An event’s ability to deliver stellar performance on thesetop-ranked factors helps assure its stability and growth potential.
The second fact sheet is a reminder to organizers that their successis not guaranteed. Business-to-business exhibition organizers needto assure that each edition of their event delivers the specific valueexhibitors are seeking. Keeping close to one’s exhibitor base andevolving an event to their needs helps assure the stability andgrowth of an event.
The 2016 Changing Environment of Exhibitions study dives into theminds of executives who are involved in the decision to exhibit atbusiness-to-business exhibitions, as well as other promotional andadvertising decisions for their company. It documents the use ofbusiness-to-business exhibitions today, the level of participationnow compared to several years ago as well as executives’ plans toexhibit looking out to the next several years.
