About IMEX America
IMEX America is North America's largest trade show for the meetings, incentives, conferences and events industry, held each October in Las Vegas. Taking place at Mandalay Bay, IMEX America draws over 14,000 industry professionals across three days of pre-scheduled appointments, education sessions and networking events. For African travel suppliers targeting the North American incentive and corporate groups market, IMEX America is the single most important show in the region — the place where incentive houses, corporate travel managers and destination management companies come to discover new product and build supplier relationships. Las Vegas in October is warm, business-focused and buzzing with the energy of the global meetings industry.
