Why VIP members get the best seats

Hosted buyer places, matchmaking slots and side event passes are limited. Organisers give them to companies they trust. We make sure that is you.

  • First in line for hosted buyer programmes. We recommend you to organisers that cover flights and hotel for qualified buyers.
  • Your company, vetted and verified. A SAIS profile that organisers, manufacturers and buyers take seriously.
  • Import and export capacity assessment. We show organisers and partners exactly what you can buy or supply.
  • Recommended to manufacturers and buyers. We put your products in front of the people who buy them, at every expo.
  • B2B matchmaking before you land. Meetings booked with buyers and suppliers, so you arrive with a full diary.
  • Joint venture introductions. Serious partners for distribution, manufacturing and investment.
  • Visa invitation letters. Fast support for UAE, China, Turkey, India, Egypt, Europe and more.
  • Free tour guide and transport during the expos. Land, get picked up, get to work.
  • VIP access to special side events. Business forums, buyer lounges and networking nights.
  • First to hear about new expos. New hosted buyer places go to members before anyone else.
Places on every delegation are limited. Members are recommended first. Companies that wait usually find the hosted buyer places already gone.
