Home - Blog - What to Expect at IMEX America 2018

IMEX America 2018, the worldwide exhibition for incentive travel, meetings, and events, is just around the corner. Held from October 16-18 at the Sands Expo and Convention Center at The Venetian in Las Vegas, it’s gearing up to be another exciting year for exhibitors and attendees alike!

Check out what the Stova team is most excited about at next month’s conference.

The All New Tech Zone

Get ready to try out the latest and greatest in event technology in-person at the show. As part of its aim to be a testing ground for new event technology, IMEX is introducing the Tech Zone at IMEX America. New and innovative technology will be tried and tested by attendees in this new area of the conference. The Tech Zone will feature both previous and new IMEX exhibitors, so be prepared to experience the latest developments and uncover new tools.

Continuing the Theme of “Legacy”

This year, IMEX has been building on the momentum of its 2018 talking point, legacy. In fact, the legacy wall is making its way from Frankfurt to Vegas, continuing the celebration of the impact for good that the extended IMEX family is making. In Las Vegas, EventMB’s Julius Solaris is speaking on the legacy created by events. Plus, IMEX’s education program will pick up on every aspect of legacy from personal to environmental, showing attendees how they can create events with long-lasting impacts for good.

Pack Your Reusable Water Bottle

As an exhibitor, we got the heads up that IMEX is on a mission to reduce single-use plastics at the show by increasing the use of refillable water bottles. Calling it the IMEX Refill Movement, instead of handing out water bottles, exhibitors are being encouraged to order water coolers instead. Booths that use water coolers will be promoted at the event, so make sure to bring your favorite reusable water bottle and stay hydrated (and green!) during the show.

Practice Your Short Game at the Stova Booth

IMEX America will be just the second event we will have exhibited at since our rebrand back in July, so we’re excited to show off the new Stova brand to IMEX attendees! On top of a fantastic booth (#F1664) featuring our new logo and colors, make a note to stop by to win some prizes. How? We don’t want to spoil the surprise, but it may be helpful if you brought along your putter!
